Blom's got some really weird logic nowadays. He left the game where he had a good shot of being a healthy winner, and he was a healthy winner for four tables of a game where he's not doing well, and he's sitting and waiting at a table where he's running bad at those limits.

Lots of pokering going on

4 tables draw, 1 O8, and waiting at one 200/400 PLO with 40k.

Edit: Also, after Isi quits the O8 table:

Chung ho: lonely chung

To no one in particular

Regardless of where you stand on isildur1's BRM/overall skill, have to admire his courage + love for the game, constantly playing the best players in the world in their specialties nbd (and fwiw, slowly beating them

)

Do you guys think that with all these 2-7 tables being filled up is actually better for him, rather than going HU or three-handed?

Now now now, Galfond has played 2-7 before on Full Tilt and yes he has lost a lot but the reason why he still plays is, other than playing with Isil, is that this game is fun (though I digress). Otherwise, he could have played Isildur at 200/400.

Isi leaves the draw tables and sits at 100/200 PLO and O8. I might post some PLO pots for a while but will be going to sleep soon. If anyone else wants to post just go ahead.

Takes a while to get a feel for 6 max ranges and you'd be surprised the kind of 3 card hands you should open fold or fold to a raise when you'd open from button. Patting earlier with weaker hands is also punished more multiway.
