Default Re: From Winning to Losing SSNL player[advice needed]

I don't want to blame it on all bad beats but sometimes looking at my sklansky bucks makes me want to puke. Is this normal variance?

Your sklansky bucks line is standard. If you play both tighter and more aggressively than your opponents, it's almost bound to be like this, whether or not you are running good or bad. Don't puke, by itself it DEFINITELY doesn't imply you're running bad.

That said, don't panic, this can easily be variance.

Try to stay more open minded, just because players don't play like you, don't assume they are plain bad. They may be, but (even if it's just by chance) they may have hit upon ways to exploit you. And just because they do some stupid things, doesn't mean everything they do will be stupid.

There are more than 1-3 reasonable players at most limits > nl 100.

Keep improving, keep an open mind, keep learning etc and you will be crushing the games again soon.
