If you're playing well and in a reasonably soft game don't expect too much variance over the course of a month (notice most $16 9m graphs are like lines..) but day to day the swings can be fairly significant.
Thanks for the response Tomo, I guess I'm underestimating the variance a bit. It also makes sense given how many solid winning regs there are playing the 16s.
Just to follow up on your response, how typical will this be? For example, lets look at someone who grinds 150-200 games per day , 5 days / week = 750-1000 games, 3000-4000 games / month. How often should someone like this expect to have decent daily downswings of 35+ BIs. I understand we should expect upswings as well. Seems like turbo STTs are much more swingy than I thought, is the variance associated with too many winning regs at the table? Seems like so many guys are grinding the 16/27s these days.
