First off, I would like to introduce myself to the people on the forums. I am a long time reader, 11 time poster.

I just started playing hold'em online about 2 monthes ago. I play mostly tournaments. I also wager on sports. One thing I have noticed is that the standard deviation of my bankroll is fairly large in consideration to the size of my bankroll. I will often place in the money in 8 of 10 tournaments, and then precede to lose 4 in a row.

I am curious if this is normal, or an indication that I "go on tilt" or change my style when I am losing or winning. Is it just a matter of coincidence? I would love to hear opinions on this matter.
