Variance Please Help

[JaneTheHot]

Before this variance occured, I was winning 1-2 ring game limit poker for 40k hands at 2.8 bb's/100. However, even though I was winning I did not give up my poker education. I kept reading new books and re-reading good material. However, recently I am suffering huge variance. It seems that I cannot win any longer. Please post some advice. Thanks!

anyone?

[JaneTheHot]

thanks for the great response... just waht I needed [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

[BigBadBabar]

jane, everyone goes through downswings, and they suck.
take a break from poker if you need to.
go down a limit if the money bothers you.
play fewer tables and get better reads.
analyze your play afterwards. if you're really getting 2 outered there's not much you can do, obviously, and you know that already, but if you start tilting and making bad calldowns or stupid bluffs afterwards, that is fixable.

good luck pulling out of it. post lots of hands on here. respond to people's posts. keep improving.

[BigBadBabar]

also, without turning this into a competition, there are lots of players (myself included) who've played way more hands and had much bigger swings, both up and down. the more you play, the more you understand variance and realize it comes with the territory.

[Christian_Peters]

This post is incredibly terrible educate.

My advice: find a softer game.

[Niediam]

I'm down 150BBs in my last 3k hands. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

[Tzen]

I was amazed by the variance I had myself as well at the 1/2 Limit game at PokerStars especially since 0,50/1 was easy to beat for me, ofcourse with ups and downs. 1/2 so far breaks even after 17K hands, which also means I need a little more hands before I can really say something about my play. I also already adjusted some small things and this seems to work (was down about 150 BB before). I'm also down to 4 tables, where I played 6 to 8 at 0,50/1, I want to be confident about my play first before I open more tables or move up.

I think the huge variance comes with Limit/FR and a lot of Tight opponents. I also notice it really matters what times you play, since sometimes it's just full of regulars which all seems to break even but you won't find an edge there yourself.

I don't see a lot of people really winning on these limits, I guess most regulars just play 1/2 because they like it and all the better players are either moved up, playing 6 max or moved site. Which means you have a really small edge vs the regulars, who you might beat, but this will come with big variance.

I will check my PokerTracker for stats on you and might see some things. But I don't think I really have a lot of hands to say something other then that I have the same sort of graph.
