I suppose two tables = less variance...

There's no such thing. Jason told me.

Q: Do I now sit at one table with $80 or at two tables with $40?

assuming you are playing .5/1 - you could short stack 4 tables and go for a spin

4 tables if I spin it up to $200

Next hand I back I back-rase a late position laggy raiser with pocket two's and he peels or floats me or something.

The flop comes 7 6 3 two spades. he bets 2/3 pot. I push he snaps with 33.

What happened to patience, discipline, bankroll management and moving down the levels?

I know Ralph. I'm so ashamed of myself. I just had a rush of blood. I ran it up to almost $800 at one stage and I wanted to get it back quickly.

Damn!!

I still can't make money on Stars, even without the Americans.

Do you think it was variance, or am I just crap? I have to admit, I did start to play a bit lairy when my roll got big.

Should I deposit another $200 and have another bash? I have to admit, I did enjoy the last week or so.

I'm not sure.

I've never managed to win at cash NLH online on a regular basis so I've not tried for years now.

You have been a winning NLH MTT player for as long as I've known you so why play anything else?

I haven't the time to play online tourneys on a regular basis at the moment Ralph, and I especially can't put in the volume to overcome MTT variance.

Plus, I like the freedom of cash. An hour here, an hour there....
