yeah i think people always underestimate the number of VPPs you can rack up playing PLO.

Can someone give me a guesstimate of what sort of VPP level/rakeback I'd make playing approximately 25,000 hands of 50plo a month on Stars?? What about 100plo? I'm trying to compare it to FTP's latest changes...

Unless ur a fulltime poker player 7-8hours a day is pretty long in my eyes.

Very often the players who invariably give you a hard time and are tough to play against aren't the most profitable ones - by far. That's what I keep telling myself whenever I feel the desire to "LAG it up".

I think that's because a lot of the time the same type of players have a tilt-issue.
Also, there is a thin line between genius and insanity. A few small tweaks on those players may take them from -15bb/100 to +15bb/100 IMO.

Then you must lead a very sheltered life because working 8 hour days is pretty standard in the western part of the world. there are actually some people who *GASP* work overtime at manual labor jobs making a LOT less than what poker players earn. How cold is it under that rock, bruh?

i think what he meant was that amount is a lot if you already hold a job or go to school etc

garibaldi,

i didnt think u were slowrolling me today when u flopped the boat in the 5 bet pot against my overpair. but..... u see that u shouldnt assume they are being douchey/angling when they time down online. its not like live where u see exactly what they are doing and know whats going on. maybe his kid came in the room or their wife came and asked a question or maybe they were at work and the phone rang. u never know. anyways, just goes to show u that u shouldnt get pissy and assume its a purposeful angleshoot.

Last edited by pkrtxs; 10-09-2010 at 09:10 PM. Reason: and holy ****, u ran so sik against me today. how did u not win moneyz today????????????

Well I only recently started playing PLO, I have in fact posted in this thread, and I have 6x as many posts as you, so I think calling me out as a "massive lurker" is unwarranted.
