Could always switch to FTP with 27% rakeback. That'd get you about $800 back from rake.

To answer your question these hands were all I needed to finish off getting Supernova, I did pretty well in HoldEm and MTTs the first half of the year thankfully. I think my main problem was probably the 12-tabling aspect, not sure why I was in such a hurry in retrospect. Made it a little difficult to worry about how many times I was completing in the SB and so on... [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img] Anyways, thanks to everyone for the suggestions! Hopefully when I give Omaha another try I won't pay quite as much rake and can play a little better. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Didn't notice the 12-tabling thing, but honestly that should be making you play even tighter. It's way easier to focus on all your hands if you get rid of 70% of them preflop.

OP mind if I ask how you reached supernova so fast and what your stars name is? Im sure we've played before if you've been multitabling those stars limits for 33k hands.

My Stars name is UHave_3_Outs. Would be cool if you had some notes on me you would care to share. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] Anyways I'm not really sure I got Supernova all that fast considering I only play on Stars and mostly play 12 tables when I do play. In addition to the hands I posted I also played a lot of $2/$4 NL 6-max HoldEm hands the first half of the year and earned about 60,000 VPPs. I earned about 25,000 the month when the VPPs were doubled so that sped things up a lot. Anyways, I plan on taking a break from cash games for a while and focusing on playing MTTs as I seem to do best there.

Wow, so you're winning at 0.10/0.25 without rake and losing 10.58 BB/100 with it? I had no idea rake was that bad at low stakes in PLO.

This is no joke, rake is structured in such a way that very few players can actually beat the 6-max $25PLO games. In spite of all the retards, it's the house that's laughing in the end.

[/ QUOTE ]My DB isn't that big (only had PTO a few weeks and been playing seriously for about a month) but it is VERY possible to crush this limit despite the rake amounting to about 15 PTBB/100. The other players are just so bad. I don't usually play more than two tables at a time. (BTW I think my VPIP from the SB is showing up as zero because on some sites the small blind is the same size as the big blind.)

imo it s even worse at the plo50 level where the rake just seems to double and the competion does get a bit better.
maybe the rake is also extraordinary high because op seems to be limping a lot creating a lot of multiway pots being raked higher.
