Alright, it's 6:00PM ... I've been playing all day and I'm down $36.51 ... 2.3K hands. I've made $42 in RB. So basically I'm up six bucks.

I'm thinking ... isn't this usually about the time now when some great big huge gobby whory hundreds of dollar sick monster hand comes in? It worked two days in a row. * lol *. I want a big hand!!! I can't wait to see my final chart for today. It's gonna look like one of those scriptograph thingamajeebers ...

Ahh ... save it ... it'll basically look like this:

Well I finished the day out. Nothing stellar and certainly nothing close to the $500 I was gunnin' for. In the end I made $89.95 at the tables, and about $60 in RB. Still pretty good for a day's work, but I really wish I'd just stopped at 10AM.

I can't believe the rake I'm paying. Wow. I've paid $735 in rake in July. (Less rb.) Holy BR leak Batman. It's a bit encouraging actually ... because I'm probably at the worst possible limit for paying rake. At the 20 tables it's capped (30 cents a hand or something like that.) At these tables the cap is $3.00. I know that this amount represents a really big percentage of my winnings ... and that as I go up through the levels ... that percentage decreases. Built in raise ... fantastic.

That's it ... it's Friday night ... I'm going to pretend that I have a life outside of poker.

One-outed twice this morning!! First time was for a short-stack so I didn't care ... this sucked though ... I'd been waiting quite awhile to get this particular target all in.

I think if you had any questions about exactly how PLO works ... today's chart should clear that up.

A first occurence for me which I had to document. I'm playing 4-handed against 3 short-medium stackers. I'm holding KKxx and the flop comaes K67. Everybody gets their chips in and I clean off the whole table in one hand. Woot!

Later in the day I'm off for another 1st occurence ... check it out :
