The variance at .02/.04 is ridiculous

[Hack]

It's at least 100 bb's a day up or down, with 7 or 8 people seeing the flop on every hand. I have to have a flush or straight or have my set improve to a full house to run. Top pair won't hold it's own.

My solution has been to start playing a lot more speculative hands like suited connectors from any position because the pots have so many people in them.

Is this correct?

This variance is really getting to me. I go on rushes for 40 or 50 bb's and then lose it all plus more, and I'm pretty sure I'm playing correctly. I know that in the long run I am going to come out on top but this is really shattering my confidence.
