I agree, variance is a bitch 

.
But, to be honest, I almost look forward to reaching a level where I can say I lost 1k in a day.  I consider it to be one of those things every good player has to deal with eventually.  Of course when It happens I'll feel like crap and probably take a few days off from playing...  man, I can't wait!  lol.  I'm one sick puppy 

.
Cheers,

PS.  I don't think I'll reach that level for a while tho...  *sigh*
