Default A nearly busto frustrated player - Advice?

Hey guys,

Well, I have been playing pretty heavily since March and have swung like crazy. I am a college student so I took time off in May to study for finals and cashed out as a result. I started up again about 10 days ago with a 500$ roll for NL25 and have since dropped over 80% of it.

I am getting my money in with the best hand nearly all of time. I am just frustrated that at a limit where I should be KILLING, I am getting cooled.

Does anyone have any advice on adjustments to make when playing uNL to avoid the massive amount of variance?

help is greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

RadiKs

Sit at any 25nl table.

If you lost 80% you should have 100$ left. Move down and work your way back up to 500$, keep on grinding. Sucks to play the 10NL level, I would like to be in your shoes. If you play 25NL with 100$ variance and playing with scared monies will leave you busto.
