Hi.

I see you're doing very well in PLO, steadily making profit and growing your bankroll. Well done :f_cool:

Sweat session would be interesting, but can't do it at the moment, because need to study hard. Hopefully I will be free in two weeks time.

I too throw in an occasional MTT here and there, but lately I just can't cash in any of them. Hopefull luck will turn around ^^

Good luck at the tables!

thanks Jackalof....

I saw you on a couple of rush PLO25 tables sometime back... i did not have a pleasant experience playing rush omaha.... seems like you are doing fairly well on those tables ;)

GL with the MTTs.... I wish you all the luck coz without luck it is next to impossible to win one of these...

after the good, comes the bad... however, in my case, you get the really awful....

played a long session on friday/saturday and everything that could go wrong, went wrong...

I was down $800 or so playing PLO25 - :f_mad: :f_mad: :f_mad:

managed to recover some of my losses and am now down $400 or so.... i did tilt after ages but this was after losing many stacks to 1 and 2 outers on the river....

i can attribute around 5 stacks to tilt, which is definitely quite a lot... but the important thing is that i was able to regroup and come back really strong.

I think one of the reasons for this downswing was my increased vpip... i was getting involved in too many hands...

my bankroll is at $1425...

p.s. I am now a platinum member on stars....

things have really gone down hill for me... i seem to be playing good poker for long stretches of time but 1 bad beat puts me off... what makes it worse is that i am playing 10 tables at the same time.... i tend to get really spewy after this and drop stacks like crazy...

my banroll is $1100....

in the last 4 days i have played 16k hands and have lost $827 (33BI).... not sure if i should continue playing PLO25.... would u recommend giving it another shot until my bankroll reaches $750 (not hoping to get to this mark)....

I will play for only an hour a day on weekdays and 4 hours on weekends instead of playing for countless hours..... i will also reduce the number of tables that i play on (4 is the intended number)

time for me to get back to winning ways... :f_cool:

It's been a very very long time since my last post.... The reason for this self imposed hiatus has been my dreadful run playing PLO... I really love playing this game but the variance that comes along with it is just BRUTAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL :f_cry:

i managed to come 5th in a $7.50 turbo tourney on stars for $363... :f_biggrin:.. then managed to donk away $322 playing PLO10 in a single session (TILT + FISH) lol....

my bankroll is back above $1000 though, so it is time to pull up my socks and start playing POKAAAH once again...

my bankroll is at $310 - ;(... this is after transferring 600 to a friend and losing 500 in a crazy session of PLO50 HU.... this is the first time i ventured into playing HU and donated a lot of money...

I really need to stop playing like a retard. have decided to take a break from poker for a month and will only start playing from June. :f_cry: :f_cry: :f_cry:


Ohh, tough break. Another PLO related accident... I hope you will recover, work on your game.

See you at the tables (when I move to Stars eventually :f_cool: )

i cant wait to get back on and give it another shot... PLO is the beast.... i look at this as a minor setback in a long and eventful ( ;) ) session.... i played my b or maybe c game multi tabling HU... a recipe for disaster... i was on auto pilot for most parts,which resulted in me getting my backside whooped....

GL to you when you start playing on stars...


Hey paibhai,

Long time no see. I read your posts and again, ops! Avi, this is which time you do something like that to yourself? _cry: I hope that after this break and everything else, you will be able to focus on your discipline.

Keep in touch.

Regards,
Dessi

I am posting after ages but the action during this time was crazy to say the least... I built up a bankroll of 4k playing PLO100 on stars from a single $100 deposit. Unfortunately, i have had 3 bad sessions and ended up losing all my winnings.... i do not know how to cope with tilt and this is something that is really bothering me. I have experimented with timed sessions and the lot but i invariably ended up chasing my losses after a few bad beats which results in me going broke. I am planning to achieve supernova on stars, and should be able to get there before the end of the year.

Time to grow a pair and get back once again
