Hey,

Not sure if this is right place for this, but Im a serious hobbyist and long time winner at PLO25 online.

I'm interested in downloading some PLO sim software and playing around with it. I understand that my time studying might be better spent on a RunItOnce subscription etc, but I'm genuinely interested in creating and reading sim outputs for 6max PLO.

Any recommendations?

Dude put a pretty good play on me the other night, I thought. 4-handed I make the nut flush on the button on the turn. Checked around to me and I bet about 2/3 pot, somehow seeming a bit stabbish, which is what I hoped. He check-raised pot with top set. I've played top set that way on the principle that they can't play for stack with a flush if it isn't the nut, whereas you can play with top set. Alas I did have the nut insta call of course. He said something I didn't like. One card still to go, he says,"Nice hand, take it." I take that to mean he now knows I have the nut flush and he must have a smaller flush dead. But he has top set, very live, saying take it. Anyway it didn't pair the board and I held up, but his comment is appropriate only with small flush, and inappropriate drawing so live, imo.

No, his comment is smart. Nothing wrong with some sly table talk.

What's sly about it?

he skewed your perception of his range. he bluffed you and you got owned.

your post and opinion on his table talk is utterly ridiculous.

Jeezus. The money was already in when he said it, I had the nuts and had insta-called him of course, I won the pot, I was merely saying his tack COULD HAVE won the pot for him against most hands but the nuts. No, he didn't own me ... me with the nuts. Your post is ridiculous.

i never said he had the best hand and won the pot. also, betting 2/3 does not seem stabby (especially in a 4-way pot).

In the "I just didn't have it in me to say I screwed that up" category. I was there and I made the check around button bet seem iffy, which is why he raised it, yo.

nope, still mean everything i've written in regards to the hand ITT. you seem one level above me, so i'll just leave this one alone... gl!

After a 7 year break from the game i love (played spins start of 2016 until end of 2022), im back in the streets.

Been playing only 3 months, first month i think i just ran good and won about 3.5k, last month lost 2k and in June made a solid month and feeling like im back in the zone.

Looking for a RB deal for GGpoker, please PM me

Beat: might to play some live 1-2 or 2-5 today

Update.
Played three hands.

Lost aces vs kings all in pre (but won side pot.

Won with middle set against top and bottom.

Lost everything with top two and sf draw to NFD all in on flop

Then got messaged by my wife and had to leave early. Two hours of wait list for that lol.

I will probably go back tonight and try to sit in for more than a single orbit...

sounds worse than your normal live poker evening! why'd your wife pull you out? out of mercy?

Had to go back home to help with some prep for a trip to OBX. I guess it was merciful on her part, bless her heary...

How heary is she?

Hit 100k bbs made since I got Drive Hud and saw it actually coincided with the same day that I passed 300k hands so here's a small brag. 98.8% 6 card PLO, rest 5 card, and stakes are from $.10/$.20 - $5/$10:



and def not coming from HU or 3h

Wp, solid wr

Wow, lul at 6card. Grats!

Kind of wish i took some shots on those sketchy phone apps, but hard to trust the integrity.

About 2 years ago someone offered to stake me $50k but I didn't know them at all and turned it down because it sounded too sketchy.

I need to find a new staking advisor

That may be the greatest run good of all time.

Last 1 1/2 year on party poker... mostly 1/2 ...

Insane volume, i assume table select is 0?

I wanted to share some thoughts and concerns I've been having lately, and I thought it best to put them in writing. It's not easy for me to admit, but I've been feeling quite apprehensive about posting or discussing Omaha poker in public forums or social media. I'll be honest – I'm scared that doing so will reveal my lack of Omaha knowledge and experience.

Let me clarify that I am genuinely passionate about poker and have dedicated significant time and effort to improving my skills in Texas Hold'em and 7 card stud. However, I've only recently started delving into the world of Omaha, and I'm still in the process of learning and gaining practical experience.

The reason for my hesitation stems from a fear of being judged or criticized for not having the same level of proficiency in Omaha as I do in Hold'em. I know that every poker player was once a beginner, and everyone has to start somewhere, but the idea of exposing my limited Omaha knowledge to a potentially critical audience is daunting.

I value the poker community and the opportunity to learn and grow from fellow players, but this fear has been holding me back from actively engaging in discussions or seeking advice related to Omaha. I understand that asking questions and seeking guidance is a crucial part of the learning process, but it's still challenging for me to overcome this anxiety.

I'm writing this post as a way of acknowledging my concerns and taking a small step toward addressing them. I would appreciate any advice, encouragement, or guidance you could offer on this matter. Have you ever faced a similar situation when learning a new poker variant? How did you overcome your fears and uncertainties?

I'm eager to continue my journey in learning Omaha and ultimately becoming a more well-rounded poker player. Your support and insights would mean a lot to me during this process

So you have some clout in the world of NLHE but none in PLO

How did you get that clout?

What are the ramifications of you making a dumb post? Would you lose coaching students for your NLHE? Sponsorship opportunities for NLHE? Maybe could charge less markup?

Point is that there is no material loss that can come from you posting something stupid. There is only material gain, ie you learn why it was stupid.

When you lift weights at the gym, how far do you push it? Do you do, say, 20% of your one max rep, 15 easy reps of that, maybe 2 or 3 sets, staying well within yourself? Or do you go for 50% of your one max rep, 10-14 reps or until failure, if you can't handle the 3rd or 4th sets at that weight, take down the weight or take down the number of reps until you can't do anymore? The key word here is FAILURE. You train until failure. That's how you build muscle. That's how you learn a new skill. It's built into us as children. We play around. We have a natural tendency to learn from mistakes. We don't try to avoid mistakes, we seek mistakes as we know that's how we learn. It's only as we become adults that we feel this social pressure to appear to be good at things. What is that worth? Nothing.

Be a fool. Try to be accurate, but don't fear not being. Post your worst hands. Post where you think your opponent is being a total idiot and it turns out he's not. That's the fastest way for you to launch yourself along this learning curve.

It's a long story but the time has come to admit that I am behind the times. I was thinking about never posting anymore on poker forums again and just quitting. But the curiousity that kills cats makes me choose to embarrass myself in omaha rather than just leave, I have to start over here, which could be kind of fun. I know how to improve but it's going to take quite awhile. I plan on 50k hands of 10plo, 25plo, 50 plo each and starting at the bottom. But mostly, I am choosing to start from the beginning out of intellectual curiousity rather than the vanity of just leaving as a boom poker player.
