High Variance early in your online Bankroll

[Buschti]

Well I wanted to ask if this was just a general feeling or if more or less everyone experienced this:

When you start at a site your variance seems much higher and the bankroll swings way more important then later on. Well of course that might be due to not having found the right games there yet etc. But still i had a feeling that on all 3 sites I played, I started off a consistent winner in low-limit games that were easy to beat but then was going on awful runs where an average ROI of 40% or more and a nice profit got shattered to nothing in the same games even thought I managed my bankroll correctly

I only have the data for FTP where I am playing right now, but being new to the forum I dont know how to post so see for yourself with sharkscope (my name is the same as here)

Has anyone else made similar experiences? Or is 70 games turning out as even money just way not enough to see a trend upwards or downwards?

I thought this was going to be a good post about how almost every successful player now probably ran really well when they first started or else they would've quit poker. unfortunately what you said is dumb

Well you couldnt call it early after the first 1000, plus these 70 games where in less then 2 weeks
