lol the special event is a $270 100k gtd, and they’re keeping their weekly $300 200k gtd
thanks
Really, every high buyin tourney on there is worth playing if you are competent and know how to play <25bbs, stacks are short post-bubble in these. Best value is almost always gonna be the weekly 162 at 4 EST. You can late reg and be fine, but there is a lot of dead money early. This is a hand from that tourney today.
V is 50 / 2 over a small sample

so much for integrity :D
Did the other guy see a club turn into a spade too? Good god.
Clubs turn into Spades on the river, much like how chess pawns get piece promotion upon reaching their 8th rank.
Busted in 80th. LOLFLIPAMENTS

Played 2/5 PLO on Bovada last night. I’ve played less than 20 hours of PLO but holy shit is that game fun. Ran up 4 buyins so I’m basically a pro I think. Everyone kept trying to bluff on 4 flush boards. Just kept clicking call and winning.

Welcome to the wonderful world of variance. PLO is the best game to make you immune to tilt. It’s all suck outs all the time.

I’ve had so many big pairs cracked in the last few days. I lost 70% of the time with AA-QQ. Just won’t hold up to small pairs that hit sets or get the miracle card that makes a one liner on the river.
We are playing the hits…next up “cash out curse” then our new hit “Online is rigged, re-re-re mix”.
but but Existence is Pain! Mr. MeSeeks!

I worked in the product department of two of the biggest sites for the better part of a decade. I always find the “poker is rigged people sucked out on me” so strange.
Like are you playing against bots? 100% certain. Are people colluding against you in PLO? Likely. Is there a supeuser who can see your cards? Very unlikely, but maybe. Is there a code that lets your opponent hit two outers on the river but never you? I don’t think so buddy.

As someone that’s played exclusively PLO for ~10 years, I can tell you this; it’s like being manic depressive. When you’re running pure it feels like you’re a God and can do no wrong. When you flop big wraps+fd and lead, you actually make them. All the 60/40s go your way. You win double digit buy ins in a session and it’s all you can play after that.
And then you hit a downswing.You get all in pre with premium ds Aces and get them cracked by a weak suited Ace. You flop set over set and get runner runnered for heaps. You lose every flip ish pot that matters for as long as you can remember.
Downswings are brutal live when you play 20-30 hands an hour. But live PLO players are generally like pre BF HE players. Been playing the 2/5 on Ignition for a few weeks and the games are good / I’m running good.
Welcome to the great game of Pot Limit Omaha! Now, you can never go back.
