I have recently noticed that my buyin amount fluctuates by up to 25BB in a session.
I typically buyin for 30BB a session at most. And I used to become discouraged as soon as my buyin fell by anywhere up to 15BB in a session. As soon as this happened, I would leave the game with that loss or I'd tilt another 15BB away in frustration.
However, I have learnt a lot since then and the most important thing I have learnt is patience. Now when I sit down to play, I will play one or two 6 seater tables (loose passive only) for at least 3-4 hours. This means that I end up playing up to 120 hands per hour.
I now expect my 30BB buyin to swing by up to 15-25BB before grinding out any profit out of a session.
Is the fluctuation I'm getting to be expected? Or am I maybe playing a little too loosely?
