(L)PLO(L)

So as you know I pretty much ran worse, and worse, and worse, and then worse.
I decided to take a one week break from poker again, cash out my roll from B2B and move it over to iPoker.

Then I played 4k more hands and pretty much continued to run bad, but atleast I earned SOME money. I bought myself Hold'em Manager which was a major upgrade from PokerTracker2, it was simply amazing. Here's my last 4k NL hands:

See I am actually legitimately running bad(lol samplesize), can't import B2B hands into HEM.
I actually run better those 4k hands then I did all of last month though.

So anyways 1 day after getting HEM this guy from 2p2 told me that he had switched to PLO and that it was the softest field he has ever played. I obviously got curious but was reluctant to try it because I felt I would lose some of my edge on players when I have spent soooo much time trying to perfect my NLHE and then jumping in as a fish in a totally new game.

But I decided to try it anyways, and let me tell ya, I'm converted.
Jesus christ, the first few hands I didn't really know what the fuck I was doing but still the money rolled in. I have now played my second day of PLO and today I had a 10BI upswing, yesterday 4BI's.

That's a bigger upswing in one day then I have ever had in HE. It was so soft it's rediculous, it's really a breeze to play the game. So PLO is my new game, I'm about to order some books to start actually learning the game for real. But the transition wasn't that hard, I think I am playing fairly well, but there's no doubt about me making a few mistakes here and there.

Anyways the games are so soft that even my granny could win.

I bought PT2 Omaha today so I can track my PLO progress aswell, tomorrow I'll post some graphs and shit for the first 2 days of PLO aswell.

you should try PLO at a casino, people never fold.

Ever.
