Hi 2+2

Lazy poker player and lazy poster...

Copy Paste from my last PG&C threads:
My poker history:
watching TV --> playing online poker sats for Live Events
played NL, PLO, MTT and SNG without any plan
BRM ... first time i heard about that was 1 year after starting poker
afterwards i still struggled with the concept ... played some 50$/100$ PLO

Every time i see some light on the horizon (=free time) Id started a PG&C thread to be a little bit more serious about my game.

Last thread lasted almost a weeks lol - then I had some trouble at work and nearly no free time over a duration of 4-5 months

Couple of days ago I installed the poker clients again - found some money online - no idea why i had still some $$$ on there.

New plan:
Short term: play some PLO - but try to minimize my invested time or/and have fun playing
Longlong term: reach and beat PLO100
Maybe i will put in more volume/time but as a start i will make low goals to be able to reach them.

Since my start (4-5 days ago) I transfered my bankroll to FTP and Im playing the Rush week - getting around 150FTPs so Ill get a free $50 bankroll boost

Afterwards I will switch back to Stars, cause FTP PLO is dead. There are around 15 people playing PLO rush at low times and peak is around a 100.

So FIRST GOAL: complete FTP Rush week & >0 bb/100

On track for the Rush week one more day to go - played some NL Rush today because there were not enough people playing PLO to get one table starting lol

Crazy prop bet is starting 100BI in 31days at HSPLO (10+)
Im very curious how this bet is going to end - one can get some idea whats possible in PLO this days - are the good ol days still here?

ok first goal is completed! Nice $50 Bonus but on the other hand hadnt much success in the PLO game. Mostly 3 handed Rush caused by nearly empty PLO Rush lobby and lost the bigger pots "aggrostyle". All together I would be slightly positiv IF I hadnt played some NL Rush when no PLO Rush was running.

Nevertheless Im motivated and Im having fun playing the game.
Will think a little about my next goal and will keep you posted.

On another poker front I won a stunning $3.50 in the Pokerstars Summer Challenge freeroll ... after registering to around 10 of them...

BUT tonight is wednesday (middle of the work week) and Im of to the bar so no poker tonight

ok after a hangover on thursday I havnt played much and today we are going to a oktorberfest. We are a group of about 40 people - so no chance to keep sober. Fun fact - if someone could transfer the "motivation" such a trip generates to poker i wouldnt have any problem getting some more hands and better winrates.

Slow weekend - played a couple of hands but not worth mentioning.
Week starts with the feeling of a beginning cold - hopefully I can keep it under control.
WCOOP is starting in a couple of days and I wana try to sat into some events or to accumulate some T$. My main problem with playing MTTs is the slow structure - I cant concentrate or better said I get bored playing for longer peroids. Maybe because the MTTs end in the middle of the night here in europe.
Turbos and Hypers are more fun but the variance is higher too.

So last week/weekend I got ill. Whole body hurt and wasnt able to do much.
Nevertheless on Friday there was a big party - so some medicine/hot/cold shower and a bottle of wine later I feel like the king of the world.
Next day was ....

Poker related I installed HEM again so I will be able to post some graphs.

Need to post again, was lurking 2+2 alot, especially followed yaarnys 100 BI bet, but never found the time or motivation to post.
Have played a couple of Turbo MTTs for fun and so havnt put much volume into PLO.
Only played one WCOOP event so far - sat into the Zoom event and lasted 3 hands when i ran standard AA vs KK vs QQ. I hadnt AA but nevertheless late reg + high blinds = better luck next time.
Won a couple other T$ so maybe will play the Turbo tonight - but chance is that a friend will come by for a bar tour - so 50/50.

Goal for this week: Post a longer (meaningfull) 2+2 PG&C post with pics and graph
