****Official Stars Regulars Thread**** - Page 69 - Small Stakes Pot Limit Omaha

Serioius answer: Played a way too long session,lots of tables 2/4, against good players, on stone tilt, not running particularly well.

Going for SNE is taking a toll on me. It sounded like a good idea. I've crushed for big winrates for quite a while, might as well just up my volume and make SNE and tons of $$$. What i didn't realize is how hard it is to maintain those winrates when you have to play such volume, and how emotionally strong/mature you have to be to deal with the grind/ variance day in and day out, whether you feel good or not. I have lost so much $$$ playing tired, tilted, pissed off bout irl stuff, drunk, any combination of the above, that it's redic.

SNE is not for everybody, don't give yourself illusions of atttempting it unless you have grinded serious volume at small-midstakes PLO. It's SO SO much easier to say "3k hands a day" then to actually do it, every day for the whole year

All that being said, I have the handicap of full time job and family, would prob be quite a bit easier for the single poker pros out there.

/blog post

Holy crap, you have a full time job and family and are going for sne? That's ridiculous. I had absolutely no responsibilities last year and barely got to 200k vpps

I been running soso recently, had ugly session yday 600$ under ev at 50bb tables.

kinda done with the 50bb max tables and gonna focus 6 tabling fullstacks, had nice session just now up 1k 1.3k in ev, bunch of bad players gambling it up with like 500$ stacks on ante tables which is very profitable/fun lol.

Joey is plo better for grinding SNE because more vpp/hand, even though hands are slower?

How did the session end?? Typically Ive found once you hit -20BI in a session that it really can never end well, the other day during my long 100plo session I was down 54BI but bought in for 50bb each time, recovered to be down only 15 though

so 10-14 tabling 100plo is about same vpp per hour as 24 tabling 200fr I think. Just trying to find what is going to be easiest to grind a massive number of hours at

currently 377k VPP, sne will be done lol

To all stars regs,
Excuse my recent outbursts. I know its no excuse but Ive been dealing with alot of personal issues and combined with running way below EV has turned to tilt and irresponsable chatter. I am working on it, but if you see me on the tables starting to lose it, do me a favor and just say take a break... Probably wont listen but at least I'll know you are a reg and I should take your advice.

Also to any regs out there that want to discuss some HH's and go over optimal strategy please shoot me a PM with your AIM or Skype. I am looking for a couple of 100 or 200PLO players that are competent to build our games together.

3betting over 10 percent isn't optimal 24 tabling.....note to self

I think people said the new update for ninja fixed it up

so Table Ninja update still having some bugs... especially when it comes to auto clicking sit out next blind on occasion... otherwise as long as I leave any options related to that off, it works good for me.
