That's because often I don't allow people to gamble against me. That is to say I don't like to go all in with the best hand or chance to win on a dangerous board.

I fold the hand and curb my variance most times. I don't make every +EV play if it's for a big chunk of my chips. Unless I already have a bunch invested into a pot, I'd rather grind em down later. As a result I get to the same bankroll as you at the same time, but without the heart attack.

TylerK and myself had a big debate a couple months back over going all in with +EV every time you have the opportunity. It's correct to do so most definately, but you have to understand the beast. You have to expect variance playing that way. Some people like to say it's the correct way, but I like to say it's ONE of the correct ways.

If you don't like variance, then you're going to be folding the best hand a lot and winning a lot of small pots with an occasional big boy. If that doesn't sound pleasant than just deal with the swings and accept the fact that it will all come around eventually if you play correctly.
With that style you will be making less long term profits against bad players and you wont be winning at all against good players...
