Figured I would donk my way to Supernova on Stars playing Omaha (I made it but why? lol) didn't turn out so well but I didn't think I played THAT bad. Any advice appreciated, even if it's just never to play again. I'd imagine folding a little more couldn't hurt. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Supernova is worth $80 each week in freeroll EV. So 6 months comes to $2080. If you add in all the FPPs you've made getting to Supernova you're definitely +EV for the rest of the year.
You've probably earned around $500 in FPPs getting there.

Good luck for the rest of the year.

Yeah, that was pretty much what I was thinking regarding going after Supernova. Unfortunately I didn't quite expect to lose this much, my strategy was pretty much peddling the nuts, but I think tilt took over at some point. Didn't help that I tried to play more than 1/2 of the hands dealt to me while 12-tabling. Thanks for the response and good luck to you too. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

You lost a bunch of flips, oh well.

Try taking your VPIP down to 30% or less and see what happens. Call less and raise more pre-flop. Increase your flop aggression factor by raising / folding more and calling less. Your game appears to be very loose-passive, which is bad.

12-tabling will obviously make you play like crap. Reduce it to 2 or 3 tables.

Finally, you could try watching some of the PLO videos on one of the various educational poker sites.

Also, LOL at losing $114 at $50 PLO but paying $1936 in rake...
