So obviously you don't quite understand how this game works, but ok.

This. You can still play great and run great, which is no knock on him at all but he's definitely above expectation. Well deserved, though.

I was going to mention that it'd be interesting if Isildur1 posted an All-in EV graph, but then... I wonder if Isildur1 knows what an "All-in EV graph" is?

Sauce has even said himself that he's been running very hot this year, especially in PLO. He played a similar amount of hands last year and won $2.5m less than he so far his year.

What I found amusing about it was that prior to Isildur1 starting to play O8, I can't recall ever seeing Ziigmund sitting and playing O8 on PokerStars. I looked, but sadly HSDB didn't track O8 on FTP back then, and didn't see anything obvious on PTR (I don't believe PTR ever tracked O8).

Perhaps I'm wrong -- but I'm pretty sure it's not Ilari's game of choice, and rather it's just that an opportunity he considers to be +EV has sprung up.

Anyway, the game just doesn't seem to suit his personality... but whatever.

FLO8 ring games didn't really ever run at 1k/2k before Isil started playing it.

Whether Ilari is +EV in these lineups is a good question(he probably isn't), but nonetheless he is up $1.7 million in 25k hands at FLO8 on Stars and FTP combined, so he's not a total fish at it.

Where are those stats from, did I miss something?

Havent played much of this game but isnt that too big chance hell gonna be called with a pocket pair.

Anyway, my point being is I dont think its his game lol.
