Moving from Playdough to Real Dough

[JanelleBB7]

So I decided instead of posting this on BBV. I will continue to update my success each month in this thread as an example for future PLOers [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

This month was an even greater success than last month. I now have a 1,500 bankroll in my FTP account and 600 in my Pokerstars account in just two months time, and I am pretty proud of myself for this milestone success. I have had a LOT of help from everyone on 2+2 - especially the Omaha PLO regulars for all their help and answers to my queries.

I want to specifically thank Elrazor(my PLO coach) and TheDarkcore (my peer reviewer) because they have given me the most help to become a much better PLO player.

See my results below:

Nice job Janelle, keep it up! Got any goals set for youself to try and attain or just kind of rolling with it and see where ya end up?

I'm really happy for you Janelle. I had a similar month in September, October has been a lot tougher for me. Hopefully I can rebound because I know a lot of my problems this month have come from complacency(So that's my little warning to you).

Also great news, apparently (If Gabe Kaplan isn't lying [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] ) Brandon is on his way to Houston, and he isn't staying at Sammy Farhas' house.

LOL Yeah? hmph I didn't hear this. You need to keep up thisnamedoesnotfi because BA's been replaced.

Brandon's replacement:
<-----------Kimi Matias Räikkönen ((born October 17, 1979 in Espoo, Finland) is a race car driver, currently driving for Scuderia Ferrari. He is the reigning Formula One World Drivers' Champion.

Thanks you guys for the congratulations.

My goals:

1. Try and successfully move up to $100PLO ( I play there partially now )

2. Study at least 1 hour a day ( which is reviewing my previous sessions... looking at my biggest loses and biggest gains )

3. Play in the upcoming FTOP tournies ( If I can qualify )

Those are my major goals for Novemeber... I don't set money goals because that is pointless.

Thanks u guys [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

#2 is king.

If you want to play a big tournament, I suggest mixing in the occasional smaller stake regular MTT as well. PLO plays very differently in a compressed-stack environment.

If only I was smart enough to start off this way. I might not 'fear' poker and myself quite so much. Keep up the good work.

LOL Guys... this is soooooooooooooooooooo SICK -- take a look at the 1st day of November.

move up and chase your loses. actually no, that's just what I do - definitely not recommended. All you can do is make the right decisions.
