6max NL bug: Catching it again

Its been a few weeks since i've played 6max nlhe and i'm beginning to feel the itch to play again. I've played a few sessions on UB and have done ok. I finally took a look at my stats for June and i'm only down 3 BIs after less than 10k hands.




This is not as bad as it felt. I made some truly horrible plays but not surprisingly these were preceeded by some equally horrendous beats. But i realize now that these beats were actually good because my opponents were willing to go up against me with subpar hands, unfortunately they often won. Despite the beats there were often hands where i was clearly beat and still paid off my opponents. So i am not going to indulge that fantasy that i was playing great and just suffered some variance.

In any case this situation has led me to reevaluate my approach to poker. I now know that i cannot be a constant nlhe grinder. Instead i will try to play a mix of Mtts, NLHE (6max), SNGs and PLO, all at a leisurely pace. Hopefully i will make some money while also enjoying the game.

Welcome to Pot Limit Omaha!

After weeks of thinking about it and saying i want to play it, I finally played a few hands today. I'm not sure how many because PT is only for hold'em. But the game is so easy. Make nuts and get it AI. Thats it!
And when i say nuts i mean the absolute nuts or very close to it. Drawing to 2nd nut hands seem a sure path to variance hell.

n e way i was at the office and decided to go on stars and give it ago... actually i came across a plo vid on CR then decided to go on PS... I sat down with 30.00 on a 50nl and max buyin @ 25nl.

1st Hand Sweet! This is a very strong starting hand in Omaha. TP + 2 nut flush draws... and a lil deeper; the Kh & Kc are still out there for someone to drw to the 2nd nuts. Perfect!

Good lay down? I think so.This is a nice hand to try to see a flop cheaply with... but facing a raise i could easily bet set over setted or be drawing to the non nut flush.

In an estimated 60 hands i more than doubled by bankroll on pokerstars; from just 61.00 to 169.00... could be just variance but i'm in love with omaha!
