Well iPoker is high variance for me, I knew this would be the case when I started.

It's been quite manageable for me because, partly, I've run good. But mainly it's because they're too passive and this laggy style I'm trying tends to take down a lot of pots without much contest.

I hope I'm putting villains in hard spots, and I'm getting fairly good action on my good hands in a way that other sites don't often offer.

That's not to say I don't feel a bit lost at times... he's some recent hands (from today's session) where I felt it hard to make a decision with fairly limited reads.
Comments welcome.

Villain had AK. Can't believe he played it that passively. I rarely call with PP, so that's unusual to start with. I can't believe that the flop got checked around and then I don't think I can get much more in here.

Hand 4:
Perhaps taking liberties here... I'm not sure the turn call is good. But then the river made me feel better.
