Hello all,

Background:
I moved to Vienna not long ago, started playing PLO in November 2019 after a long break from poker - NL background. I began at Zoom 25plo and now 5-6 months later I am at 100plo with fairly large goals. I plan on moving up to 200plo in the next quarter and 500plo after if all goes well, could be slower/quicker due to the nature of the game. I am fortunate enough to be able to work on strategy 5 days a week with one of my long term poker friends who is a 1kplo reg. I think we explore the game in a unique way.

Stars regs will probably know who I am, dont out me please
If anyone wants to talk plo/poker, meditation, non duality things feel free to hit me up.

25% 25PLO, rest is 50 and 100plo split, +45buy ins at 50plo from RIO untracked



Fun hand from other day



gl and thanks for reading

Gl. Since you play PLO100 zoom you must be in same pool as me.
Would be interested to talk some poker with you but cant PM probably due to your low post count.

Hey, I play mainly reg tables not so much zoom. I also cant PM you which sux haha, do you have discord? I will get my post count up soon!


---------------------


Somehow I was down 5bi in the first 30min then pulled back for a small win today. Will post graphs probably weekly. Keep getting distracted with Galfond challenge

vs reg, ran into the nizzles




Very iffy river here vs a special player, i think flop can go either way too

Rough one today, many deepish ones going the other way.

Also railing Galfond pretty hard and rooting for him, looks like theres half a buy in between them going into the final day.

90/50/30, 50% flop and turn cant bink

Giraf since starting thread




Small breakeven patch, played some zoom today games were pretty good there too. Currently 33/103 in the $109 PLO Weekend Special 20k, hopefully can make something happen, went deepish in the $55 turbo series plo the other day.


few hands

rec putting me in tough spots



how does one flop so pure and lose, sigh



attempting to punt all the monies

Got absolutely smacked by the recs today, couldnt get much going, lost so many AA aipf meh.




Played so many spots like this vs juicey recs



Back at it tmoro

Today went a little better, felt a bit more on top of things. Put in a couple hours with Monker stuff. Also just bought a new 32inch monitor on sale to make my setup cleaner. Time to chill and watch Galfond vs Perkins



bink



unbink vs two recs



weird one



reg



meh spot vs unknown, i think given runout its hard to find folds, but i think hes gona have a reasonable amount of set+draw hands when he calls turn pot - thoughts?

In gl

Keep it up man, GL!

subbed gl!

GL!

Lets see set up?...

Thanks bros! gl to you too - monitor coming next week, shipping is slow due to corona stuff. Nothing special though at the moment laptop and 24 inch monitor lol.

Not much to update break even last few days around +5bi this month, by far my slowest and quite frustrating stretch yet. I played a bunch of zoom lately but no matter how soft it seems I swing like crazy there. Iv also started experimenting with various stack sizes which is interesting to utilize on certain tables. Oh and iv added some other sites which are untracked which isnt great for updates, but ill keep ps stuff updated here i guess.


okay



preflop favourite, 90% ott, nope



going to war here, bit of yolo spot otf, my hand isnt great to do it with too, but...when u know u know

Good luck.I am following you. I hope you will master the variance.

lol, never heard of "unbink". My new favorite poker term.
Stay strong, PLO can definititely be a ***** sometimes.

Thanks man, lets hope so haha.

Haha, thanks randomly wrote it once then stuck. How you doing?

--------------

Really enjoy playing various stack sizes lately, also been working on my game tons and when reviewing old HH's it seems like I was clicking buttons at times

+400 party and another site, will prob need to get hm3 soonish

Have been playing 95% 200plo since last update with not so great success. Cant really complain though played one session quite tired and cost me a few buy ins overall after reviewing the next day.

Also got my new 32inch monitor, maybe next month also upgrade busto kitchen table chair im grinding on.



no real interesting hands as im playing a lot of 50bbish at the moment

Pretty sick flop (4 sets in play ott)

Great to see a fellow old NL player succeeding in the PLO streets, I have similar goals so will follow this for sure. GL!

Thanks man, following your journey too.

------------

Should post more updates, after a weekish of even finally won some monies today.

Very short and sweet



donk pushes out reg with airball we have that 95% eq with mid pair

gl on your journey! would be keen to talk strat.

replying to your pm now!, thanks and gl to you too

----------

Played 4 hours today but less tables and really focused on every little detail in game, played good ran well too. Looking through hands nothing noteworthy, just held in the deeper spots.

Yesterdays results below, managed to lose a 4 way aipf for 1.1k pot with AAJTss, AA23 flopped 232 and gg Didnt play today, barely got any sleep randomly woke up an hour after falling asleep with stomach pain and most of the night was spent in the bathroom zzz.

In other news got a coaching session booked next Monday with a player who iv battled a bit in the past and I think is able to bring different perspectives/and evidently thinks about PLO in a very deep way. In my opinion coaching is overlooked by most players, I used to think that coaching was just for when you got "stuck" at a certain limit etc, but from an investment perspective (in yourself) theres always things to learn/polish your game and improve.



oh and randomly got this today, first one thats not a freeroll ticket

Yea got $30 from box also today. Like wtf? Subbed. Good luck. Do you have discord?

Thanks man, gl to you too. PM ur discord.

---------------------

Not too sure if ill play tomorrow or rest up. Put in lots of hours this month studying with various tools and got semi reasonable volume in for PLO (i think) maybe not Also seem to be playing more and more on different sites, games seem to be decent everywhere and the extra little bits of rb etc is always a +

Messed around at 100 regular with some new strategies which I ended up ditching, luckily things are going well and im pretty much only playing 200 now - as of last week.

Not thrilled with results, hoping for a big month next one

Was gona take the day off ended up playing all day, low table count tho. Ran terrible on one site, felt like there was some soft play/card sharing going on but decided to stay at it since the rest of the table was worthwhile.



cant leave when things like this are going on




Anyways month over, done at like 3.7k with some rb, and tourney stuff.
