Default Do you ever try to \"dodge\" variance?

Hello all,

Longtime lurker, firsttime poster. Does anyone here ever try to dodge variance by quitting when they're ahead? I ask because I am looking at my regular online games right now, and they are all SO soft (it being Friday night and all), but I just went on a rush and won 50BB in about an hour. So I quit, putting me miles ahead for the day with minimal effort.

I know that I should keep playing (I'm a 3.5BB/100 winning player), and I did for a while after my big wins, but the cards were cold and I just sort of felt like I wanted to dodge the (inevitable?) downturn.

Anyways, it's goofy and irrational, but does anyone else ever try to sneak away before the poker gods balance things out?
