Back to some semblance of normalcy at MGM poker room last night - packed room, masks optional (breath mints, apparently optional too...I miss masks). Played 1/3 for a couple hours until called for 5/T, game was a**y until the regs left for T/25 and the table filled in with a bunch of people waiting for other games...1/3, 2/5, 4/8 limit, you name it, they played 5/T! It was an amusingly good game. People raising turn and betting river, exposing their cards on purpose so V would not call. People telling me to "slow down" with raising so much. People EP limp/3! from my $80 to $1,500 after a good old tank, head shake, sigh SHIP FOR $1,500 I DON'T HAVE ACES I SWEAR! Yum yum.
Could only stay a couple downs before calling it...can't be messing up my sleep schedule too badly with work obligations, but what a game! Got to another nice round number for my monthly profit...$11k now...but I've realized that beyond a certain point the exact number really doesn't matter anymore to me. It's just nice to make something on the side. Along with the new position I got a decent pay bump too, so the income part of poker is really of less importance. I guess it's turning into more of a serious hobby now. But it's nice to know I'll always have it to fall back on if needed...lots of lifetime earnings potential in this game.
I started drafting a PLO5 strat guide. I would like to teach/coach people how to play, so if you are interested in hitting the five-card streets hit me up! (I have an 8.2 bb/hr. winrate over 2k hours.)
