Default Is this variance?

My stats pre “variance” were ~500 games ($33), roi ~23%, itm ~39%.
My stats now are ~575, roi ~14%, itm ~37%.

In ~75 games my roi has droped 9%, please tell me this is variance. Ok, yes, it might be bad play, but if it isn’t, its variance right?

If this is variance, I would like to bust some myths ...

1. Exceptionally good looking players don’t get variance.
2. Rebooting your machine cures variance.
3. Masturbation cures variance.
4. Masturbation relieves variance.
5. Wearing condoms protects you from catching variance.
6. I don’t get variance because I am an ultra talented poker player.
7. Only gay people get variance.

Please tell me this will end tonight ... tomorrow at the latest.

could be variance. could be that the first 500 were the variance. but for punishment for making a stupid post, you have to play another 425 games before you are allowed to post anything having to do with your statistics.

oops, sorry wasn’t my intention to offend any condom wearing gay players. Just frustrated and venting [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] As far as being punished, well I seem to do that to myself enough.
