To what do you attribute your first downfall? Running bad? Bankroll management? Cole South / Brian Hastings collusion.
Pot Limit Omaha. I played my very first hand just one year before and I only played against two regs before at $100-$200 blinds and they were better than me. After maybe 1,000 hands I started playing Omaha at $100-$200 because I needed some action when regs wouldn’t play me at NL. There were still was only two regs that would play me and that was quite strange. I guess they didn’t know I was a fish in that game or maybe not so many of them played Omaha back then, I don’t know.
I also was in bad shape. A few years before I was playing soccer, going to the gym – everything – but I’d been too lazy and, at that time, I wasn’t doing any sport regularly and I didn’t eat healthy food or sleep much. I regret that a lot. I felt it had something to do with my tilt sometimes.
And yes, the collusion. I think they were angle-shooting, and cowards. One time I remember playing Cole South in a 300-600 game and I was so tilted that I was 3-betting every hand. And he was up and suddenly he quits! I said, “wtf?” He says sorry, he has to go. I thought to myself wtf is he doing? Then, seconds later, Hastings sits down (laughs). They were probably sitting next to each other! Then he beat me for $4.5 million.
In one session at 500-1000, running 3,2 mill over EV, I’d call a raise on the turn with a wrap and fucking miss so many times in pots over 200k. It was so sick, and in the end he was keep typing in the chat when I was tilt and he ran like god, that he had to quit, I mean why quit a session like that, so sick of it. Maybe plan was Townsend or South was gonna play again?
