Sounds like a possible tele-commute job to me.

the one I want most is (Riot Games is in Santa Monica), but it will be awhile until I hear back.

bethesda studios ftw

Fallout, Skyrim and pokers

ok well since I was meeting someone at the casino today, might as well play!

Very first hand, I get in AKQJss vs 8875r for 200bb+ pot AIPF and lose. Lame.

Game remained good though and I ended up $823 in 2 hours.

Florida total: $4,983, 245 hours.

Cool. Just wondering, is Omaha pretty much your focus now when you play? Do uou find more people are switching over from Hold Em?

And/or did not realize how dead his hand was in PLO.

i admire your honesty and humor through good and bad times. you mentioned that this is like your 6th 10k downswing this year. how many / what percentage of those would you say were from NLHE?

umm, i think maybe 1 if that

well, actually i remember having some pretty big losses at 5/10 NLHE at Bike- it's hard to judge though because I was playing NLHE/PLO both daily over at Bike in 1 mixed session and it's hard to separate results

not being critical at all, as i hardly know anything about PLO, but i am genuinely curious as to why you continue to play PLO when your win rate at NLHE is so much higher? if i remember correctly, it seemed as though you were crushing 2/5 and 5/10 NLHE with very low variance as you were coming up. is it the boredom of NLHE?

As of right now, I enjoy both games. Sometimes I'll be in the mood for something, but in general I try to play the most profitable game in the room, which at Tampa Hard Rock is the PLO game 90%+ of the time.

The most profitable games I've played in general have mostly been PLO.

need me to come back over and dump another 3k in the games?

lol if you want!

can someone do cliffs or point me to the point where OP starts crushing plo?

nice one btw

I started playing PLO (badly at first) somewhere around the start of the 6th page using 100 posts per page

For those who are thinking about using Aesah as a coach I would highly recommend him.

I have played a limited amount with Aesah on Live at the Bike and we have a mutual friend, but his posts and the way he can articulate his thoughts was the main reason for choosing him. I also thought he offered to me valuable views on the differences between playing in California and Tampa, Florida. These are the two places I play most of my poker.

I have been going through a period of earnings below my win rate and wanted to make sure it wasn’t me being lazy at the table, running bad or just needing to get back to the basics. Instead I received much more. It wasn’t that I was doing anything wrong, but needing a different way of approaching or looking at the way I was doing things. This varied from the way I was recording my hands to explaining why I thought something was correct. We always didn’t agree but we shouldn’t because we are going to have different styles of play.

I think one of the biggest problems people will have with coaching is they are looking to copy exactly what the coach does and believe it will result in the same success. If you’re looking for a coach that will make you think, look at what you’re doing from a different way, level or taking what you’re doing one step further then you should consider using Aesah as a coach.

thanks man. will read. gl

tyty!

Only played 1 hour today at 5/10 PLO, got it in amazing on the flop for $2500 pot somehow in a single raised pot ($125 in pre), lost, villain moved down to the 2/5 game (gg). Still no motivation to grind.

Down $1149 in 1 hour.

Florida total: $3,834, 246 hours.

Maybe it will help to post YTD total along with the Florida total?

Awesome thread I just started reading it last Sunday. i just finished reading post #1300. Just a couple of questions:

1. Are there other things you do at the table to induce a call as referenced above?

2. Are there things you do at the table when you want them to fold?

I for the most part just dont move or say a thing when I want a call or a fold. Thanks, keep up the good work.

BTW I have never played PLO before but reading this thread is motivating me to pick it up and to move up in stakes to 5/10NLHE.

I hope you dont mind me asking you questions from a few months ago. Good luck.

for motivation? meh, i already know what it is, so posting it won't really change anything i think

there are probably hundreds of things that I do to induce calls or folds, and the things I do to induce calls are actually like the exact same set of things I do to induce folds. honestly everyone has basically seen all this crap before, so it's just whatever level you think the other guy is on and trying to 1-up him.

At first I thought it was going to be a florida/susan related rant. (BBV+"my life")
