i have been following this site for about a year now and find the poker forum and its posters to be very knowledgeable.....I have struggled with micro stakes for about a year now which i find to be very fustrating....My BR goes up and down like a yoyo.....playing .02\.04 on CAKE POKER.....should i be having so much variance in my BR???.....My BR is currently at $156.00 down from $280.......I am wondering if I am playing too loose and stacking off too easy to be having this variance...I would appreciate any ideas, thoughts or experiences of when you guys played the micros....cheers

If you've been following the site for over a year you should know to make a better post than that. That is to say, post specifics or don't bother. Go read the stickies instead.

General questions usually don't work well with poker, as nearly every situation in poker is different, and therefore situational dependent. However, in this case, your answer is no. You should not be having loads of variance at the microstakes games. The villains are so bad, that on average their mistakes should cost them loads more than your mistakes should cost you.
Streaks of variance can't really be measured, and I can't say that you should never lose more than 10 buyins at the microstakes without it being your fault (or anything close). However, just keep in mind that whether or not this is variance there is still loads of improving you can do to your game, and not study/learn just becaus it is (or isn't) variance, is just an excuse that needs to be done away with. You should always study/learn whether or not you are running terribly bad, or on an amazing heater.
