Going to call it a day. Ran it up a bit after the latest rebuy but ultimately lost a big pot to end the session. I opened AJJTds in MP with $400 effective got 3-bet by a loose gambly Asian guy who picked up 3 cold callers for $50 each. I completed the action with a call and checked a A79r flop with 2 bdfds. Action checked through and I hit the gin 8 turn giving me the nut straight with a J-hi flush redraw. Checked to me and I bet seven green chips $175 into $250. Initial 3-bettor jams, another player calls and I stick the rest in. River is an Ace and we lose to QT88.
Current:
Hours: 3.5
Dollars: -$500/$100000
Hourly: -$142.86/hour
Everything looks standard so far. If you understand preflop hand selection (seems you do), I'm sure you'll do fine @ this game.
What books have you read? It's a bit old, but Rolf Slotblooms book on short stacking PLO is full of interesting tactics (plus a good amount of BS - fair warning). Hwang's second book also has a good section on shorter stack pump-pre/pile-in-post framework.
Also, how many hours do you have @ PLO vs NLH?
