Default Re: New to $2/4 are 20BB swings common?

They are quite common. I play 2-4 and always keep $1,000 in my Party account -- I've had swings of +/- 150BB over the course of a week at least ten times (I play about 10 hours/week, 2 tables). Just to give an example, in a 5 minute stretch yesterday I had aces full beaten by quads (-12bb) and then had an opponent make quad threes in 4 cards against my rolled sixes. I filled fifth and we capped all three of the last streets. (Okay I may have overplayed sixth). I'm pleased to report I hit the case six on the river and was +15bb or so for that hand, but I could easily have missed and been -25bb in just those two hands.
