Feel like iv become a little too comfortable at 100plo after moving back down from early 200 shots. There is this feeling of why move up when im winning at 20bb on other sites + rb, but in fact the player pool isnt much different higher whenever I have a look and at the same time I feel like im losing a ton of ev staying in lower games. During my last 200plo shots I was much worse and i played a 50bb which I stopped right after moving back down.
Plan of action going forward.
1. 10bi shot at 200plo, I know its not much but seems like the first step I need to get on with the climb to HSPLO. I will mix in 100plo when the tables arent as good or as many running.
2. No more than 6 tables at any given time.
This is my total 100plo (all this year), id say about 1/4 won on ps and the rest on other sites.

Might of butchered this vs btn confirmed whale and BB unknown rec. Think turn is jam although not exciting, unsure about flop pot. Any thoughts appreciated?

Given stack sizes and pot size I don't see the Turn being any other option than a jam. You're not folding the last hand. I think you played it fine.
Hey thanks for the feedback man, yeah thinks its fairly standard overall.

Still swonging quite a lot these few days and not in the right direction lost aaq3ss to aa23ddd for 200+ bb aipf but its fine. Back at it tonight. Glgl

Week and month pretty much over might play an hour or two more but looking to wrap up and rest a day or two.
Week + 500 rb, ran the worst iv run in a while but cant complain overall
Month + 1k rb
Will post some HH later from the month have some funny deeper ones not going my way. The 200plo goal didnt go as planned so far, added a table here and there but 95% 100plo still. Won around $300 over a couple hundred hands but running terrible this week decided to leave it for next week.

Played B-ish game this week, went through a patch or two of frustration from the tables and off the tables but it feels like PLO is inherently a tilting game at times. Overall happy with results though, still not mixing 200plo

Had my worst ev week about 23bi under ev at 100plo but held it together. I played quite a bit of 200plo which I am very happy with and doing well there overall. Going to stay with playing all decent 200plo games I can find and just fill the rest with 100plo, I think its a good system for moving up. Also working hard with solver as usual, making constant upgrades/tweaks to my game.

S1C, do you have a job/did you go to uni. GLGL with the grind and the holidays/quarantine
Hey LC, no I play the pokers for money. Yes to uni. Thanks man you too!
---------------------------------
Month is officially over for me. I took the past week basically off, think I only played like 3 days from the 20th onwards. I felt quite a lot of fatigue build off, perhaps from not taking a proper break this year. I begin to feel tension, get annoyed easier and lethargic when burnout kicks in, so instead of sabotaging some results like the old me would of done I just took time off. Was nice to slow down the pace from study/grind and just do nothing. Heading to Greece tomorrow for 5 days too, next month will be low volume got several trips planned.
Luckily i played well/ran well at 200plo this month and won most of the monies there, had a tiny win rate at hundo (which is meh considering most of volume was there )
+1.1k rakeback = total $4,800ish
not sure if i got flop xr correct with that combo, need to check later
Got back from nearly a week in Greece, had an awesome time. Lots of sun, seafood, fresh fruits growing on trees, olives and tsipouro(grappa)
Not the best photographer but took some pics
basically private beach, super warm water and lots of fish when you swim out
bbq
tsipouro and food
Feeling refreshed, got in a couple sessions. Pretty much going to remove 100plo from my filter and take a lengthy move up/shot. Iv won a lot at 100 and feel like its holding me back when 200 is pretty much the same.
Will post weekly girafs from 13th i guess since didnt play much this week - and i leave for France on the 14th.
