I would just like to say something that might help with the swings. There will always be variations to your bankroll in the longterm, but if your swinging up and down constantly from this session to the very next. Too much aggression might be the culprit or making too many plays.

My bro and I, when we go play somewhere I always see the same pattern pattern. I usually come home with a moderate earning - he's usually way up or way down. His chip stack has huge swings throughout the night, and it mostly depends on when we leave as to how much he's leaving with. It's all to do with the difference in our styles. My brother-in-law plays a good game, but sometimes he will try to win too my hands in one session by making plays. Although he does have the skills to make these plays, sometimes these don't work. Sometimes the other player senses the move, they have a hand they just can't get away from, or the player is too naive to do be steered in the appropriate direction. If he sees a fish he is all over the guy, trying to isolate with him with an insatiable appetite for his chips. He just feels because he is better than that player he deserves to when "every" hand, no matter what that person holds.

You need to remember that often when your making a play your behind in the hand at the moment. You are now depending on them folding or you hitting your outs to win the hand. This can be detrimental to your bankroll if your plays are failing often.

In conclusion l'd like to say that I don't know a lot and these are just my thoughts on extreme bankroll variation. Maybe it's time to get back to the basics if you are finding your yourself hanging out at the bottom of the swing more often than you should. I think some times that we evolve our game so much with tricks, moves, and intuitive plays, that we forget where we came from and what got us there. So maybe it's time to try to play at your tight-aggressive baseline and only add in half your advanced plays.
