a 12bb/100 winner will be more likely to break even or smt whilst a 4bb/100 player will be more likely to be loosing during the so called "downswing. One who puts in more volume will also be more likely to swing more in a shorter period of time due to the volume, but also get out of the downswing faster.
But since it's all a long session like TT says anyways it doesnt really matter.

also agree w/ jonas. as 12bb winner a 8bb down still keeps u making money, so swings shouldnt be as huge.
btw: atm hu coaching and grinding. hu > all
Swings depend on your standard deviation and not winrate. 
Ofc probably depends on how u define swings.
Ahaha TT and TLN blog getting spammed with promo codes. Popularity must be over the roof

Soooo cuuuuteeee
Great post about variance. And imo and experience: takinging slightly +EV plays rise your variance short-term in terms of bi, but your breakeven stretches gets smaller. Taking as many +EV spots as possible should reduce your chance of finishing negative for the week. Dont know if i made myself clear.

But yea, great post about EV. What I found myself is that before I was kind of a slave to ev - when I was running below I would be like "ooh great, now I'm going to suck on them sooo much" and when above I would just wait for the downer to come as I was simply "running too good".
Well, guess what, it doesn't matter ^^ For people with weak mindset, the easiest solution is to simply not look at your EV. If you don't know the EV then there is no way it can affect you - easy, right?
Ofc people with strong mindset wouldn't care about it anyway - every hand is for itself and all we can do is play it to the best of our ability ^^Thanks for being so awesome TT
@battlehunter, at the end of the day, i don't think the EV that affects our mindset but rather the fact that $$$ that keeps going down.
i mean we all know what to do. but to actually hear it coming from people you look up to, gives you more faith in what you are doing. maybe i'm just weak 
but at least i dont donkey them away at the tables

play self-critically at all times and reflect your game. dont care about ev lines. care about green line longterm. and dont forget to enjoy the grinding
