Flushdraw

Going to stick $300 on pokerstars and play exclusively $6-$16 omaha hi/lo STTs and see if i can beat the game.

Was going to setup a prop bet but i couldn't commit to any sort of volume/hours so will just play for my leisure now!

You think thats a big enough roll to play $6- $16 stts especially at hi/lo?

General Zod

1) play more

Yeah i'll start at the $6 and $11 games so thats about 30 buyins. If i get to about 500-600 i'll drop the $6 and play $11 and $16. Wont go higher than that. Its a relatively small pool and i've notes on about 60% of the regs at that level in prep for the slog.

Due to the way the games play, i reckon 4-8 tabling is the max i'd get going.

1. Another profitable month
2. Play a few more Mtts
3. Try get to a level to move up again.
4. Enjoy it as much as i have this month.
5. Read more 2+2 and books.

Was just intrested as am playing 45mans on stars and while im way over rolled i was wondering what other peoples thoughts are. I am playing 4 to 10 tables usually but have dropped down lately and results have vastly improved.

1. Move back into 10c/25c.
2. Learn how to identify and exploit specific weaknesses of opponents.
3. Play juicy cash games at local casino whenever possible.

If i was playing 45mans or NLHE i'd probably want 60-70 buyins but the O8 games are slower and the variance isn't huge. Despite not posting this in the BBV, i can feel the curse coming on! Bye bye money..
