Yea I met him to do a trade once, that's been my only interaction with him but seemed like a fine guy, hope he'd say the same about me

And cool, thx for the info; on ipad so don't have access to SS. Will probs just not worry then or just stick to bumhunting 300s/500s anytime I see a HS fish that I know can't be good at the 4cardaments in the game .

And yeh, multiple time SNE, already at 450k this yr

Thx for info, much appreciated

Well I don't play sng's but I see that there are like 8 $100 ones running now 3 $300 and 2 $500 so looks like there is some action. Fwiw, and being an o8 player I am obv biased, I think that its well worth your time learning this game in one form or another.

There is so much info available these days for nlh and plo and as a result the games are far harder than they used to be and the games are only going to get tougher. Where as with o8 there is very little info out there and therefore the average player is much weaker than at the same level in nlh or plo.

Yea there is sick action at HS hypers all day long during peak, can continuous like 18-25 table $200-500 nlhe hypers if you don't table select; I'm just looking for any extra edge I can find.

I already bumhunt/game select softest sngs among many formats, just looking to expand it even more

lol seriously, unless you play hs hypers and don't want the competition then why would you tell him to not bother playing ?

You typed your reply before I finished mine but surely as Omaha H/L players we should be encouraging anyone with an interest in the game to come and play.

Many people read this guys pgc thread and if some of them see he is playing o8 then there is a good chance they may also give it a try. The more people that give o8 a try the better imo I really don't know why you would try and put him off the idea of playing this game

Well just looking in the lobby I would imagine you could get a similar amount of tables of $100+ o8 hypers going as its not peak now and I count 20 odd running.

Hard to say if you would have any extra edge playing these over nlh ones as obv it depends on your skill level, but I would be amazed if the o8 ones weren't softer for a player who was equally skilled in both formats.

Thanks Josh. You are a very nice and classy guy, one of the very few I have met down here.

Was just getting my head straight, and some juice under me and was probably being a dick itt, but the offer was sincere and legitimate, and not to rub it in the regs itt or their friends, but I never hid from anyone or denied action, 0PM's.

You are actually the only person who has ever come to my defense, which I find shocking considering I have made numbers of sales with bloated vig rates to the players benefit, I never make enemies irl, and I have been cheated out of six figs + in my lifetime and no one can ever find a person irl to say I did one shady thing. Thanks again and I look forward to seeing you shred those hypers, good guys always win in the end, take care.

probably being a dick? just lolz

If you really weren't trolling and not sure if you were being a total knob end then you for sure are a massive douche irl.

But obv hard as nails as you dare any1 to call you a toolbag or w/e to your face and give them $500 too. pls send me some more threatening pm's they were enjoyable and I await the $500 bucks so I can book my holiday. That will be small change after all your $4sng wins.

has any1 actually ever seen this clown at anything higher than 0.25/0.50? I certainly havn't

Ah leave it out billy, we all know he made a fool of himself there is no need to start all that garbage up again.

I have never started a fight in my life, not one. But I will sure as hell back that $500+$500 prop offer if you want. I have stars, Paypal, Skrill, and like always can send first since I am a nobody who has to send money to kids first (on my Paypals) to prove I that I am honest, lol.

alright send me 1k and I will book my flight. stars pls

I can send it to a reputable escrow here if you want. And it will only be $500, it was $500+$500 for the finders fee. I prefer pm's if you want to discuss this further.

fwiw PlayaHata1/peso2paydirt is actually replying to himself in the Rosarito thread in the travel forum.

http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/92...9/index43.html

I feel kinda bad for the guy, clearly he isn't in a very good place mentally right now. He also pm'd me recently thinking I was in Rosarito and he wanted to meet me and discuss playing 25-50$ heads up.

A very strange man indeed.

Lol how is any of this relevant. No one accepted my offer, that is the bottom line. My pm was sincere, not sure why that was an issue? I have played against the best in the world and won. With my educational background I am not sure why it is hard to believe I am not being sincere in everything I am typing.

There are 3 people at my place total with 2+2 accounts, we are laughing at most of this and speaking on each others' behalf. Hilarious, I should probably make a booty call and leave you alone.

Do you guys realize the br requirements for professional sports bettors? It is not like we are talking about a lot of money here. Even if I lose, so what, trying to get my game back to the top, not like I haven't been there before.

I think peso2paydirt will drop it if everyone else will... and that would be a good thing for all of us.

Thanks.

Buzz

I apologize to everyone I offended. If I ever post itt, please perma ban me.

I have never been called out, accused, and spoken to like the people at this site do. I have literally paid thousands of vig on Paypal sales through people I met at this site, cooked 9-10 meals for people, helped with real estate and bananas several times without trying to angle or make a penny.

I am older than most, and make 90% of my money on sports. I have never engaged anyone here with the intent to rob, steal or deceive. Honestly not sure how to handle people here as I never have these sorts of exchanges irl. Good luck with the hypers, I prefer slower structures and have not enjoyed the popularity of this format.

Everyone has proven my deficiencies and mental instabilities, you guys win, good luck in life, "All Apologies."

Hehe completely agree, and since I tend to blog about literally everything I do and am never on hide, word would get out that I was playing them .

And on top of that, we'd all be (myself included) semi fish at em!

Yea I am in no way anywhere near a good O8 player but I would completely agree with your assessment that I could/would have a much higher ROI at a $100 nlo8 ht over a $100 nlhe ht if I got 'good' at them.

I have beaten 50plo zoom for like 12bb/100 over a small like 25k hand sample of messing around + have a few PLO mtt scores and def do prefer PLO over O8, but I feel I could quickly pick these games up if I put in any effort, as I'm obviously already quite comfortable WRT 6m ICM and different pressure points/play on different stack sizes in the HT format to where I think I could be ~0 ev roi from the getgo if I was only playing soft games.

The problem is the 08 games will take extra attention from me since its lol_4cardaments, so I probably wouldn't bother playing anything lower than a $200, maybe would add in some 100s once I got regs noted and could cherry pick the softest games.

No worries, maybe will cya around one of these days, although I've been tied to my condo trying to figure out how to win again lately

atm i am not playing hypers above $30 level since i just bounced back from a beating i got at hu hypers. higher buyins are filtered since i dont want to be tempted to play them. also the 30$ buyins were a little slow these days so i just assume that its even worse at higher buyins.
i only looked at sharkscope to see who has played the most hyper sgs at 36-100$ and 101-300$. and seeing that wadzon only managed to play 32 of them (about 1 game per day) i thought to myself that this is not the volume jdawg has in mind...thats all

i didn´t think about the possible growth in the o8 community or any other considerations besides the "most games played" leaderboards at sharkscope.

[mod edit] Billy, what part of Buzz asking everyone else to drop it was not clear?

Sure you have a very popular blog and if people see you playing the game then they would be likely to dip their toe in the water. I think this game is likely to become more popular in the future as nlh and plo contine to get tougher which makes it well worth learning imo

Well like I say I don't pay hypers so nothing for me to gain from any semi fish that start playing them but the more people that start playing the game at any format/level has got to be good for the game.

No doubt your skills from nlh hypers would transfer well to nlo8 hypers. Impossible for me to say if you would have a better hourly playing these due to the lower volume in these games but it would be very interesting to follow your progress if you decide to give it a shot.


Yeah that's fair enough I understand you were just giving your opinion, nothing wrong with that. Was surprised to see you discouraging people from talking up the game but I see what you meant based on the lack of volume compared with nlh hypers.

I do think if we can somehow manage to get this forum more active then it would help to grow the game. I will make more of an effort to post here more often and I hope yourself and others will do the same.

Spent my FPPs on NLH hyper satellites, really good day, got a ticket three times out of four, unregistered. 33 tournament dollars to spend on the O8 hypers for less than 1000 FPPs!

Needed it, the win graph hasn't quite looked the way I would wish lately.

Nice.

Played a few $30-60 nlo8 hts along with my normal grind tonight and they are so much fun, even if I'm really bad at them .

Will continue to play them offpeak when I normally don't get enough tables (and there's less regs in the nlo8 games), gl on tables ya'll.
