I don't get it? Seems normal to me...well, except the dog.

the dog is crucial

that's normal for me this month too except it's -27.40 ptbb/100

ps -- dog is definitely crucial. cute little beast.

Agreed. Beevers is a nit but I think is also a winner.

How can I run 28.7 BB/100 hands when my stats are 44/16/4.3 over 5k hands? It's 6max obv.

Hi, welcome to the Omaha forum.

so I finally got around to increasing my deposit limits on PS to something vaguely realistic..... if this is what I've been missing out on I've got some catching up to do.

poker is pretty easy.

This is the sickest sickest session of my life. Wow, I don't know how to say this, I'm so tilted right now I almost kill something...

I played omaha on a non-US site, and GOD DAMN, people are so bad there. It almost hurts to play there.

Anyway, I had a goal of 1k$ profit tonight. A couple of hours went, and finally I tipped over the 1k limit. At my table though, was espesially one play who was so incredible bad, and he sat with 6 buyins at a point at PLO200! He ran so sick it's [censored] unbelievable. I'll show you the stats later, they're so sick.

I was sitting there and waiting to stack him, but then BOOOM! I was [censored] doomswitched so hard, I would almost think the site is rigged. I have never seen anything like it. I just sat there stunned, with my mouth open and couldnt believe my eyes. And if that wasn't enough, some other donkey managed to stack my fish at two different tables as well. jesus [censored] christ.

Hi, welcome to the Omaha Forum.

were you 82% 3 way in any of them and still managed to lose?! even tho i mini raise the short stacks BB pot, my ******ed target still called my bet, BB obviously pushes enabling me to shove all in, and the spastic still called!

I thought my 20 buy-in downswing was over when I made 10 buy-ins yesterday. Then today came along....5/6 of my biggest losing hands I got in as over a 65/35. My favorite hand of the day was though was this one, I mean I guess its reasonable to assume his 5s are good on the flop.

Hello,

Since yesterday I actually put in a few hours playing Omaha and learning the game a bit. So far Ive been playing real tight (I would guess around 20-25 VPIP, no PTO yet) with good succes. It seems there are a lot of NLH players that try Omaha there. So far Ive had some good succes. Obviously, this could be variance. So my question is;

What are 'common' swings in PLO? I know 20 BIs in NLH happen (been there, done that) and how big should my roll be? Im a former $100nl - $200nl player, and have some understanding of PLO.

Also, is there any literature written on PLO, or should I just post hands and learn from those?

anyone know of a a good hud to use with poketracker omaha?

The standard bankroll for lower limits is about 30 buyins. Ciaffone and Reuben have written PLO books. Most people would advise playing and learning through the forum.

just found the spewest table ever, 200PLO ave pot $155, scored with my 10th or so hand - QT22 wtf?!

Dear September,

[censored] YOU.

Me.

On your behalf, I asked September to die. Unfortunately, due to bureacratic regulations it takes 6 days to process the request.

2+2er says 'I am ahead big time'. I guess you got a 1% edge there.
