During April have been playing only about 7000 hands of PLO2 Zoom. About 13 bin down, All-in adj diff about 11 bins. Quite frustrating to lose all this kind of flop AIs.

Here I 3 bet agains agro, he 4 bet and I 5bet, he calls. Flop AI with 79%. Turn 9♣:, river blank

Next TAG regular at MP open, unknown BU 3bet, I 4 bet from SB, MP fold, SB call. Flop AI. Turn J♥: , River 7♠:

This was sick hand. I rarely 3bet KK-hands but this propably so premium hand that it's a must and even to to AI if 4betted?

Practically dead hand UTG check-shove on flop, MP calls and GGpoker sw doesn't allow me to go AI, only call possible:f_mad:

GG working correctly there as the all-in is not double of your bet :)

Good thing to keep in mind in multiway spots or sometimes pre if e.g. 3betting shortstack open raiser. In this hand didn't really matter though.

Yes, that happens very often on preflop when small stack is involved, very annoying, have to keep in mind that 50% rule, I didn't know it. So if I bet 75% that is less than half of UTGs remaining stack and he shoves I could go all-in?

Thanks BunBun. Nice to see that people follw this blog that is mainly my monolog. For sure, I will continue.

Villain in that "Almost tilted"- hand has fine stats:

Yesterday I had against him 2 preflop AI hands with my AAxx luckily won both, this is one of them, flop wasn't nice, villain cashed out his 66% and I cashed at turn because was close to tilting.

Nice hand sir.

I'm not sure if I like the cashout option at GG poker, it is tempting to do so, but also most of the times not needed and even costing you money in the long run, because it is preventing you from winning big pots and not balancing out your losing hands that way.

Also, the game dynamics at GG Poker I find kind of annoying, that includes the cashout option.
The scenario where you are all-in postflop, and you don't want to run it multiple times and don't want to cashout:

You have to click the cancel cashout
You have to click the cancel run multiple times
You have to click (again) cancel cashout on the turn
You have to wait because the river card is dealt very slowly. (or click again to see it fast)

Very annoying, what do you think?

Yes in that spot 0.88$ would be the maximum. Shove would then be exactly double of your bet.

Yes , cash-out is not profitbale on long-run. I use it only when close to tilting to avoid tilting.

To make multible clicks to refuse cash-out or multible runs is really annoying in GGpoker. But PLO R&C in GGpoker still runs much faster and more hands/h than PLO Zoom in Pokestars. Those are only sites where I play actively currently.

Week 6-12 May ended with -6bins (about -4bb/100). From GG leader board got +6 bins and RB +2,5 bins so it's small plus to bankroll. Lucky win from daily flipout and JP-hand participant price gave together +16,5bins making weeks total result +19bins.

I'm not happy how I have played. Can't get off my 2 big problems: playing too tight and high FlopCB. And not cbetting when should have. Also some stupid postflop mistakes when calling instead of raising and calling instead of folding. So lot of improvement still needed before can move to higher stake.

Today had already one short session. Is this hand showing the way for all day?

Agro BB makes small 3bet, easy call. Nice flop to bet when BB checked. Turns gives nuts, bet and BB call. What the heck he can have? River is one of possible bad cards, BB shove and I thought a second and made hero call.

That river is not a hero call. It's "dance around the table before clicking" call. :)

If he has QQ/55 then be it. There are lots of worse hands that he could donk the river, like TT/J5/T5/Q5/AK/K9 and some weird bluffs.

Nice result for sure. Seems like a goodcall with a full house. Decent change villain can over play a straight or something like that on PLO2. If villain had QQxx or 55xx it's just unlucky I think.
