    Been trying for ages to get a TAG to fold top set after putting in 200bb. Finally pulled one off

    Not enough people have things to brag about, the beats are boring and the variance is lower.

    **** I hate the variance. After couple of years break from serious Poker I decided to give a try to really try to beat Omaha. Two weeks playing like crazy and calculating hands while sleeping. Few idiot calls while tilting and couple of desperate bluffs, but mostly really solid game. Results just kill me. Now I remember all too well how I hated this years ago.

    Trying to build a bankroll slowly and bad luck hits especially on bigger limits. Now again almost broke and don't have roll to play and live from winnings. -60 buy-ins under EV within a month, what a start.

    Just have to vent off.

    No time really to give that amount to the game for no return.

    You shouldn't take PLO on as a profession if you aren't prepared to go on a crippling downswing or two.

    BRM is the most important thing, especially when you are a professional. Until you learn that, it keeps happening over and over again. Just move down when you drop below certain point and get your **** together there. It's hard, but beats going busto or losing most of your roll while possibly making tilt-induced mistakes.
    Downswings happen and so do upswings regardless of your playing ability.

    You're crushing at like 40bb/100 while running like dog****. That's really ****ing impressive. Must turn around.

    smack is that all on stars? some sites only show the winning hand from an allin, so you'll always run under ev because you only see opp allin hand when you lose the hand (so you seemed to have 100% eq when you win the all-in, as opp mucks, but see real % when you lose cuz you see both hands).

    i just don't believe someone can actually run 300 bi below in 100k hands.

    no, it isnt on stars

    but that site shows losing hand after allin

    for example:


    so everything is ok with that graph. unfortunately.

    btw. i had some similar swings on stars:



    so its nothing special for me xD (just kidding, fml)

    I mean I ran 100+ bi under EV on stars over quite a few hands but running some sims it literally seems impossible to run that bad. Like, actually can't happen. So something's up but I don't know what

    edit: stars graph (middle picture of above post) is reasonable though. The others aren't...

    i think everything is fine, cause std dev on that site is higher.
    ***Small Stakes PLO BBV THREAD*** Quote
    08-24-2018 , 01:23 PM
    Why your std is sooo high - 380? Like there are a lot of shorties. Or is this hu? I think the second one because you have bigger then normal wr - 40 for 6 max.

    GL&HF with that swingy game

    08-24-2018 , 02:27 PM
    this is 6max but games are with straddles, antes and really deep.

    thanks and vice versa!

    No LC thread anymore?

    Haven't played in 3 years. Yesterday installed PS back and BOOM. I guess poker finally is dead . It was a thing some years ago, but seems legit now.

    WTF is this new chest reward system?!?! Tried to make some sense of it, but it feels like my head wants to explode over and over again.

    Where's good PLO50-100 6max action these days?

    Stars New Reward Structure

    Simplified definition: there are no rewards

    Description of the rewards system: you give us lots of rake, we give you chests

    Reality of the rewards: you get 2-3%

    Is this basically saying it's PokerMaster or PPP? Can't think of many sites that allow straddles outside of these two. Perhaps Highstakes.com?

    After a year of not playing.. one of my first hands (100BB stacks):

    UTG opens, I 3bet AAJ5 otb, UTG calls everyone else folds

    flop: 3 5 5

    UTG checks, I cbet half pot, UTG calls

    Turn: J

    UTG checks, I cbet about 60% pot, UTG calls

    River: Q

    UTG checks, I ship the remainder, UTG calls.. shows QQQ6


    Feels good.
