Only fish color up. Best feeling in the world is taking a break and being able to see your stack halfway across the room as you walk back.

That chipstack needs its own zoning ordnance and building permit.

Running Aces in MN. This is a relatively old picture though.

That's what I thought.

2-2 PLO, in for 600 out for 1900 in about 5 hours. I'm just learning the game but have played a lot of limit O8... running at like 125 / hr in my first 30 hours. Sustainable?

Nice! Unfortunately no. Seems like there is a lot of beginners luck in the game. Hope you can keep the streak going though.

That game can be off the hook. Nice hit!

How'd your car come out?

Oh my Jesus, that is definitely the biggest stack of reds I've ever seen in my life!

I'm the opposite, I like colouring up as much as possible. A ginormous stack just gets in the way at a full table, and it's so much easier to make big bets with greens/blacks than to count out multiple stacks of reds.

Again, that is for a limit game. You can't make big bets. You can't make small bets. You are never sliding out multiple stacks of reds. There is only one bet size you can make at any given time, and it's always some smallish number of those chips.

Plus, in the 2-100 Omaha high game they spread there that stack, in total, wouldn't be that excessive. Most people do color up though.

That is old then. I didn't even realize RA was open in the $60 max days. Of course, up until 3 or 4 years ago I only played at CP.

You won every chip in the room, so they shut it down?

It looks like you were the floor manager and built that because no one was playing and you were bored.

20/40 a week and a half ago.
Played just over 5 hours, much of it 3-handed.

I actually had only half of this built during play (the 3 leftmost columns) with a bunch of smaller stacks to the right. Finished building the tower when the game finally broke.
