I'm wondering what the point is of playing levels where you're going to run up against very good players more often than not...why not step down and play softer games? Surely your win rate at the lower levels will make up for the higher $, plus your bankroll will be better able to withstand bad run.

It's like I'm always being asked to go play at The Wynn or Bellagio by my poker buddies - guys I know who are very good . Why would I want to go ply against them when I can beat up on the tourists and local nits at The Orleans? [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

btw Al, not really sure what your comments about how you never heard me say something about variance means. Did I even say anything really other than that Im getting murdered in last few hours?

Yeah it was a compliment really, b/c you never complain about how you are running. So when I heard you say you were having a bad session, I knew it was most likely a horrible catapstrophe by most players standards. But you can brush it off as a bad session cuz your champ.
