To add to the mess at Crypto they opened SH PLO200 tables which seems to just about have killed the FR action. As more and more sites are going te 6-max route for PLO too now I suppose I'll have to improve that part of my game. This session was good anyway though, played 1 SHPLO200 and 2 PLO100 at pokerplex and cleared $30 of that mothly. I also discovered I had $180 worth of bonus at the old fish pond that is Paradise, but I haven't played there since it shut out americans, but it seemed stupid to just let that bonus rot away there, totally forgotten to mankind, so I deposited like $300 and tried to decide on the best way to clear it. I'll try to run it up playing SHNL50 which should be a fun little side project for when I'm bored, and the bonus should clear at a decent pace. I haven't played NL50 in like forever and it seemed my opposition hadn't either. The best move I witnessed was this beauty, I call a $1.5 raise from UTG with 44 OTB, flop 46K two clubs. UTG open pushes his last $50 into the $5 pot
. I obviously insta call and he flips over Q9 clubs. It's no surprise a 3rd club fell on turn and I didn't boat up, but if this is the standard level of play at these tables this should be fun. Despite losing a stack there I finished up like $30 from 100 or so hands at NL and up $470 from the PLO so session total result was somewhere in the vicinity of +$530 including cleared bonus. Tonight I'm gonna eat dinner and play an all night scrabble session with some old friends. Oh yeah and if anyone find a better Pats bet than
Pats (+5) 1.92
please send me a PM.
