Yes, because many of the micro PLO players are not good players. You can do much better playing against bad players with no rakeback than playing against good players with rakeback. Think about it for a little while, in order to earn a lot of rakeback, you have to put a lot of money on the site and play a lot of hands.

Rake's going to be like 10-15bb per 100 hands in the micros. If you can beat it or just break even, you're doing pretty good. The rake will be your toughest opponent, though. Games are very soft.

Short answer is only a few hands because my personal ROI in this tournament would be very unpleasant. Even if one single tournament had a nice result I wouldn't take that lone sample, its ROI, the initial luck of receiving of the ticket, and pretend any are the norm for myself or others.

The norm is you can easily build a bankroll for PLO50.

Doesn't help lurking Twitch streams where NL players do check-ups with solvers while playing to see if their play is good. Amazing this kind of behavior goes undetected.
Haven't been on the site in months, first time i open the 500plo tables, i see Spork running their mouth in chat, acting like a totally abrasive a-hole. I'd probably be over the whole cheating thing, if he wasn't such a complete scumbag while playing.

Must be tough to be so desperate for action and money.

Spork is a real pos because of the cheating and somehow makes it worse with his annoying chat always btching. Really don't understand why global still lets him play there knowing his shady history

Because........they are an unregulated, quasi-legal US facing site, that are intentionally circumventing US gaming laws.

Oh, and they are also browser based, hahahaaha.

How did he cheat ?

He was using solvers while playing plo and admitted to it here on 2+2

Yes global being an unregulated site allows them to have no oversight and is why they are so sketchy when it comes to transparency. The only thing you can really count on them for is quick payouts and they seem to do a decent job of stopping bots. But if players get caught using RTA and are still allowed to play this creates a situation nearly as bad as botting

whats his channels name on twitch?

What's up with you **** regs like Hulgar snap-sitting out as soon as rec gets felted, then snap-sitting in when they reload? How does Global condone this excessive of bumhunting behavior?

Can't blame people for not wanting to battle with zero rakeback
06-07-2022 , 06:04 PM
I haven't played on Global in a few years, but am getting the itch to play and my live options aren't good at the moment. I've become pretty jaded with online poker thanks to a bad experience with PokerBros. How to folks feel the PLO games are at Global these days? Concerns around collusion/cheating? I'd likely play PLO100 give or take.
06-07-2022 , 10:33 PM
Severe collusion at microstakes. Buddies calling each other by first name, squeezing and resqueezing and forcing people out of every pot, openly sharing card info, etc. Yikes

Hulgar is a massive whale lmao. If you think the term reg belongs anywhere near his name, you're the fish.

Not surprised that you focused on this and ignored the part about poor ethical behavior, given your history of cheating with RTA.

Damn, you're really on the lurk on poker forums and go gunning after someone for mistakes made 4-5 years ago as if you've never made mistakes while you're still a low stakes bad reg, whoever the **** you are.

I wonder how much better you'd be if instead of whining on twoplustwo you put in some genuine work.
That's what I did throughout 2021, this news is long in the past and most players I've met that talked to me after the fact for any reasonable amount can clearly tell I'm long past it.

I mean if you're going to bring up lurking or gunning after someone, nowhere in my post from a few days ago were you mentioned or even at the table I was referring to. A common variable though is scummy behavior, and here you are.

Not all mistakes are the same. If you were long past yours, you wouldn't have this defensive and personal of a reaction, and could also differentiate between something like a poorly-sized bet and outright cheating people.

Did the 55$ PLO 50k 1R1A not have an add on? I was watching it pretty closes and the button never came up for me

Games are pretty good. 50, 100, 200 plo all soft enough. Not that many winning regs. Multiple recs/losing regs if not all per table. Of course some sessions more nitty than others, but overall easy money.

from the discord:

"VicPok3r — Today at 6:52 PM
Regrettably, this is my screw-up. The tournament addon break was set incorrectly. This has meant all players were not able to perform the add on. On the positive note - massive overlay and all players are on the same playing field. Negative - well its just an all around cock-up from my end really and the negatives are plentiful.

For all players who were remaining in the tournament at the time in which the add on should have come (244 players) we will be posting a PLO Freeroll SC 3000 to run on Sunday 17:00 next week. This will be invitational only and entry drops will occur shortly which you can use to register.

Again, I'm terribly sorry for those who wanted to add on. Obviously I wanted this to run without a hitch..... for the players more so than the massive overlay global will eat too 🥴 lol not going to be a fun day in the office"

So I've played a bit. the PLO50 and PLO100 tables all seem incredibly nitty. Every now and then a loose rec shows up, but for the most part it's just people sitting around waiting to see who coolers who. Am I wrong?
