Hi Kojika,
looks like Mansion doesn't like you, but I guess the samplesize is still too small, so lets see where it goes. I tried now 250 hands PLO100 and I am 2 stacks down as well. I think we can have a joined session later this week. Maybe I can give PLO50 SH a try if you don't like to watch me play FR. Looking forward to see your style. Talk to you on skype.
Cheers, Sebastian

Hey there,wow, did TwiceT influence you that much? Your stats are killers, 20+ PFR is the thing I never manage to pull off. Sweat session would be awesome, I will be free in two weeks ^^
Good luck at the tables and dont get freerolled as much as I do ^^
Yep, he told me how to raise hands like a monkey ♠_cool:
monkeystyle ftw 
btw: u guys like threesome ♦ ♦
just as an idea: u could also book a coaching together, so its just half the price for each of u and it could be an interesting discussion. just as an idea for the future.

Sooo, I've got many things to say about this session but I don't have time 
I just got sucked out a lot and lost a ~400$ pot vs a fish, flipping 
Today's graph :
wow I thought PLO was always the game of ''I have at least 20% equity, I callz'' but 0.1% o_O :f_cry:
Things don't go very well for me this week...
I lost again 2-3 stacks today and I just feel like I can't beat these fish
awww, cmon man chin up!
just keep making the right decisions and you KNOW it will even out in the end 
Just keeeeeep smiling! Smiling is the key you know.
Hey everyone !
TwiceT and I played had a sweat session 2 days ago and he can tell, I ran pretty bad.. But well, I thought I had lost 6-7 buy ins but actually ended up loosing 3 buy ins.
I learned a lot again and he told me I had to play much more. I decided to apply this advice yesterday and grind like I never do
I started being unlucky again with this hand :

And then again, … but still, I thought about TwiceT and decided to carry on playing and, as you can see on the graph below, i twas a good decision
I played really well, bluffed some hands, induced bluffs and made good laydowns. I’m really happy with the way I played yesterday and I feel confident for the next sessions 
And here are some important hands of this session :

i like betting turn for a)value, b) future ev and c) free sd more in this spot. turn is a super blank, if he had 2pair+ he had raised the flop. u are very often ahead + u can make a str8/top2 by the river and vbet again. if u dont improve, u just check back. u have pos, u have the powerrrr! use it!
next coaching, remind me of this hand, i have more to say about it, but i dont want to give free coachings for the others here 
dont forget, u need big sample in plo to see how u are doing. dont take short term results serious at all, plo is crazy, as long as u have enough stacks for 100, just play 100k hands and evaluate then. u play well sir, u know it. u are def. a big winner on 100.
gl and kill em

Yep, I thought about betting the turn but then the pot would be bigger and I saw him betting pot river 2-3 times in a row (his aggression was something like 2 with a river aggression "inf" ♦).

I know that and I also know I'm better than most of the Plo 100's players. Variance is sick but in the long term, I hope to get a sick winrate as well

But still, I'm winning today (~25$)
EDIT : Just forgot to say that I completed the sb with a pure trash, but these guys were so bad that I thought I could play fit or fold with my hand
Sick sick sick...
One guy was terribad, he was calling with trash hands, raising with any4, ...
On this hand, he could have called me with JJ but well, sometimes things don't go in the right way.

Fortunately, my "auto rebuy" didn't work for this table
and all my draws couldn't hit...
Ended up loosing 400$ today... I know it's just variance but as always, I got sucked out by fish who can't even play this game 
I hope tomorrow will be nicer.
Hi everyone !
I'm at the university at the moment so I won't be able to post graphs/hands but I'll do it when I'll be back home.
But now, it's time to sum february up :
I crushed the Plo50, finished 2nd in a $4MTT (+1250$), cleared a bonus (300$), got some rakeback (I don't know the exact amount) and was unlucky in Plo100.
So for february, I won about $1400, which isn't bad but isn't good either. I also didn't play enough hands (which makes the variance harder to live).
About Mansion Poker :
I found out that I could get a nice rakeback there if I rake $2500/month during 6 months (about 35-40%). But a member of the french community told me that buying items in the Mansion's shop was the best way to spend my points and all I have to say is... SICK ! The shop is so big, with really nice products (PS3, laptops, screens, ..). So I'm really motivated to play a lot and for quite a long time at Mansion Poker.
March, new month, new goals :
My main goal for this month is obviously to beat the Plo100 and get a nice bankroll by playing there.
Goals for March :
[ ] Beat the Plo100 with at least 5bb/100
[ ] 30k hands
[ ] At least 2500$ rake
[ ] Don't tilt (even though I never do)
I also decided to set my BRM a bit higher than before (again) : I will think about moving up when I'll have at least 75-80 Buy ins. Why ? Because I don't think I'm able to carry on playing my A-game with a 10-15 buy ins swing at a higher stake (it's already hard enough at Plo 100)
Kojika Plays Hold'em ? :
I really enjoy watching televised poker on the internet such as "The Durrr's challenge", "Poker After Dark (cash game)", or, my favourite, "High stakes Poker".
I had missed the season 5 of HSP and decided to watch the whole season last week. While I was watching it, I played NLHE (Nl10 SH) and waaaaaw, it's so easy to beat. I got sucked out a lot but I really think I can get a winrate of 15bb/10. The problem is that I play very loose (40/30) so it's hard to play many tables. I mean, while watching a video, 2-3 is a maximum.
By the way, TwiceT was right about something : When you play a lot of Omaha, it becomes "UBER-EASY" to read hands in NLHE ! (Obviously, the NL10 makes it easier as well ♦ )
