but skoal i have built up a 1000 bankroll off of 25 dollers when i start to lose 250 to 300 of it on strictly 10 doller sngs it worries me should i be worried or is it "variance" rearing its ugly head?

I doubt it's all variance. Perhaps you've developed leaks and you aren't even aware of them? Maybe your play has changed a bit thanks to a losing streak?

look.
1) a 30 buy-in downswing at those level aint that rare, ive been 14 OOTM on a row twice on the 11s.
2) dont expect nice replies when there is a stickied FAQ, did you really read the FAQ??

agreed, variance is a minor part of poker. It takes its forms in days and even weeks but good play will always compensate for variance
