PLO blog- How long can I stick to one game?

PLO graph so far since my comeback

And having said all that about sticking to one game, I still fully intend to play a few of the remaining SCOOP tourneys, as well as my HU SNG challenge against JB Patzer (what a patzer)

At least the title of my blog makes sense.

EDIT: Well corrected.

Ok, so basically the idea of this blog is to help me try to stick to one game.

I have the same problem, though unlike you I'm crap at all of them.

Who said I play them well

Most interesting hand from today. Is this standard? And notice what the CO got it in with ♦

Welcome to the blogging section and gl with your challenge

The cool thing about PLO10 is that most guys only 3bet AAxx, and therefore put everyone else on only AAxx. So instead we 3bet other hands, which means we hit the flops they try to bluff us off, and take it down on the A high/dry boards ♠_evil:

Another solid session, lol. Will take a break until Monday, playing a chess tournament this weekend. If anyone is interested in chess content let me know

Here I 3bet a pretty good hand vs a very loose guy. On the flop he sees he has plenty enough equity against AAxx, but he is completely crushed by my better draw

ROFL

Well, the chess tournament didn't go so well results wise, but I was quite happy with my play in most games. Here is the big blunder that ruined my tournament:

I had played 1.e4 e5 for the second time in my life, and used up a lot of time in the opening, but now I'm doing pretty well, with my great bishop on e4.

Basically I was 100% sure he would fall for e7?? Qxg2+ Rxg2 Rxf1#
So when he played he played Qe1, I spazzed out and went Bxg2, which just loses to chopping twice on f5 and e7

After that I won my remaining games to finish on 3.5/5, but no prize money for that.
