Seat 7: DarkTremor showed [8c As Ts 6s] and lost with three of a kind, Sixes

Would have gotten me back to 12.6K but the 3.5 to 1 shot hit. Lost my last 2100 shortly after on a dumb call on the flop. I'm not technically busto because I have about $600 combined in Neteller and Cake Poker so I'll probably just play the Sunday Million again, and maybe another $215 or a $162, and then I'll be done. Unless I win big in a tourney this might be the last post I make on here. Nice knowing you all.

1. No one knows [censored] about PLO on BBV.
2. Nice BR Management: 100/200 on a 13k br? NICE. Even 30/60 is high.

noob

lol, that may be true, but I don't think you can draw that conclusion from just that one hand.

I'm pretty sure peeling with second pair and a gutshot isn't a good play in PLO...either way that sucks a lot bro.

Thanks for your sympathy. My point was that average players and even good players sometimes make bad plays, and unless it's a horribly blatant bad play (usually calling a big bet as a guaranteed underdog/drawing dead, etc), it's impossible to comprehensively evaluate the strength of someone's play based on one single hand. I decided that the bet on the flop was a small enough % of my stack to be worth calling and trying to hit two pair, trips, or the straight. It certainly might have been a mistake, but if so it was only by a small margin, and when all was said and done I got almost all of my money in as a large favorite. Obv this is off-topic especially for BBV, but since someone brought it up I figured I'd continue the discussion. And it's worth noting that against his actual hand the call was entirely correct, since all of my outs were good, his club redraws notwithstanding.
