Vinetou , don't worry about variance . If you're properly bankrolled , then it shouldnt be a consideration .

Just value bet with your good hands . The only downfall is that your checks will indicate weakness but you will only be checking with hands that you believe is second best .

The only time you would consider checking your strong hands is when you feel that your opponent is a bluffing type calling station . A player who will call you down with plenty of hands but would also bluff at pots quite frequently .
