*** JANUARY 2007 Low Content Thread ***

It's a new month, so new thread to post low content.

It's also a new year, any new year's resolutions?

Mine:

Turn all my levels on pokertracker to green (positive numbers). I knocked out PLO 25 (6 max), next is PLO 100 (full table).

Continue to improve

I started playing PLO again a couple of weeks ago. 7500 hands, the results are not very good. I made 10 PTBB/100, which is ok, but at 6 max tables (5800 hands) I am only at... 0.5 BB/ 100 ! It seems I have trouble adjusting to short handed play. Moreover, my standard deviation is 120 BB/100, which seems to be too much. I now try to play less like a maniac, we will see.

My resolution : stop 4-tabling 6 max. I win a lot when 2 tabling, I suck when I play more tables. I'll try again when I totally beat .5/1 and 1/2 6 max tables (10 BB/100 on 5000 hands seems a resonable goal) .

To be more aggressive at 6max PLO, and to stop paying off the damn short stacks.

I leave for South America, Australia and beyond on the 12th of February. I haven't played since the 22nd of December. Between now and then I'm going to play 200 hours online (about 40k hands) and 40 live, and win enough to cover the trip. I know this is nothing for some of you but damn 40k is a lot of poker.

Then I'm going to enjoy the trip, fit Vegas into the itinerary, and not play my 40,001st hand until WSOP time.

Oh, and were you waiting for a safe turn to put the money in with nut straight + nf redraw? LMAO

[CrushinFelt]

No no no my friend, look at my stack. Was a fairly aggro preflop table. Was looking to c/r preflop. Also, post flop he was aggressive enough that I knew he'd commit himself on the turn.

I actually played it perfect. Thanks though.
