I played 5k hands at 10nl 6-max on Merge this week and ran -$70 (7 buy ins) BELOW EV. Is this super gross runbad for such a small hand sample? How the fart does one run so badly? Is this more common than I am thinking?

You see, poker had a lot of variance which is why I don't like playing it much. Donks always hit their cards and make me lose the best hand EVERY TIME. That's mainly why I switched to being a professional Blackjack player. The swings aren't nearly as bad as ****ty poker.
