Over the past year ive played around 100k plo 1/2 6 handed game hands, the result so far has been only 4k profit with an EV expected value difference of 3k more profit - not really a great result for an entire years work....

Id like to ask a few questions to the experienced online plo players.

1: How many hands should i be playing per month? My best month i managed to have a 10k upswing and actually played 40k hands, the next month i had an 8k downswing in just about 15k hands - the rest of the months i only played about 10k hands as i didnt run too good and would stop playing for the day if i lost around 600€.

 2: How big is the variance and swings i should expect ? Im trying to do a very rigid administration were ill stop playing for the day if i loose 600€ - Does this matter? or should i focus more on playing more hands even if i loose 1500-2000e in 1 day if im playing properly?

 3: One day in which the tables were specially good being 2/5 instead of the usual 1/2 - i ended up loosing 5000€ against awful players having an EV expected value difference of 6000€ profit in about 1600 hands - Should i have stopped playing earlier that day even though i played correctly the game was good and i just kept having huge bad beats as the EV for the day was positive? ( when i review the session i see no gameplay mistakes worth mentioning )

4 : How big is the bankroll i should need for these games and how big are the swings i should expect to win or loose in a very loose swingy 1/2 6 handed Plo game with 3-4 tabbles running ?

Thanks for any input from experienced players
