Default Can you become the PLO spin-up king?

I just had an incredible but ultimately disastrous PLO spin-up then spin-down in 48 hours on iPoker, turning $50 into $4600 back down to $0:

http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showfl...0&fpart=all

I started on $0.50/$1, then got to the $2600 point playing $1/$2 and $2/$4. I took some shots at $5/$10 to get the rest.

YOu may have seen this article on "PLO rampaging" which I guess is what I was doing: http://fellknight.blogspot.com/2006/...plo-style.html

I want to issue a challenge to all you PLO players who feel like trying this. Start with $200 (more than I did, but let's cut out the earliest stages) and see how much you can get up to in a week. Move up levels when you can; though try not to have all your money on the table. It's up to you whether to buy in full or short stack. My best success came from sitting with $200 at $1/$2, doubling up, sitting with $400 at $5/$10, doubling up and then doubling up again to $1680. Try this yourself.

Who's willing to try and take the crown of PLO spin-up king?
Thread has potential. Graphs, please!

Posted it there too but thought it might get more serious attention here.

Back in late february I stuck $600 onto a $5/10 table at full tilt. First four hours went well, I had it up to $4800. Next four hours went badly, spun it back down to $0.

why do you think it merits serious attention? Surely BBV is the right place, or the low content thread if you must.

RoundTower, you are obviously a massive douchebag for that suggestion.

Don't you know that luckyjimm has dedicated the last few years of his life and all the money he earns trying to be the PLO spin-up king. He's pretty good at it too, but just gets bad-beated and always ends up back at $0. But there's always next week's paycheck to try again.

Jimm, you've attention-whored most of the other forums on this site, please refrain from doing so in serious forums like this (lol, I couldn't even write that serious bit with a straight face). But seriously, not here.

Edit: lol, i guess it was moved.
