Taking money off the table - reducing variance or weak move?

Hi all, something I've been thinking about recently is whether it is a good move to close your table when you have made say double/treble your buy in (or 100/200 big blinds) then joining again with your standard buyin.
Obviously you can't do this at all tables, but you can for Zoom etc.
Is it a good way to reduce variance (which, having discussed in my 'run it twice' thread, is a good aim), as it reduces the amount you can lose back at any one time, or is it a weak move as it reduces the amount you can win from deeper opponents?

Depends completely on how well you play deep and how well the other deep players play. If you have a decent skill edge there, that will "overcome" any variance considerations as you will make more in a shorter period of time.
btw zoom eventually stops you I think

Cheers, yes I can see what you mean, I've always leant towards keeping the stack but the variance conversation got me thinking.
