Yay. -3 buyins in 10 hands. I quit because I'm going to tilt. The same guy made a river wondercall with bottom two (and nothing else) after I had potted preflop, flop and turn with TPTK+NFD. He couldn't fold the river. ARGH!

I both hate and love PLO. I often play when I'm on tilt so that I either recoup all losses or I lose a little more. It works well in general.I've been really been getting into 8-tabling NLHE over the past week, but I am going to keep up with a bit of PLO every now and then. I forgot how bad people are in general.

I want to get better at NLHE as well but i have so much fun playing Omaha i can't give up playing it.

Ok, just started playing for a while - I raise preflop with AQ64ss, flop of A63r. 1 opponent.I pot the flop, he calls.Turn 8He checks, I put him in for about pot. He calls. He had A844r.He called the flop with just A8. Ouchie. I had him on the straight draw.EDIT: Need to stop bluffing the river with busted draws.

See, at a table where a guy has just called allin with just the As thinking he had a flush draw I am still a buyin down. I can't win big pots. I havent won a pot worth over a buyin in over 2k hands, and I have only won 3 pots worth over 100xBB in the last 5k hands. That is running bad.EDIT: This is NLHE and PLO stats combined

[BudBundy 0]

That is running bad indeed.And the only known cure is playing more hands. It won't stop the bad run but it will shorten the period.EDIT : I know you already know these but sometimes you just need to be told what you already knew

[simo_8ball 1]

Yeah. I've played a lot more recently, but its frustrating.I need to get all my money into FullTIlt because I feel like I have a short BR at the moment.

[simo_8ball 1]

Well, after a decent start today I ended about 4 buyins down. AAJTss in a huge preflop pot, flop of 456. KQT9s in huge 5-way preflop pot ($60 in preflop and we were all deep at $100PL) flop of J62.This wasn't a good day. I need to run good soon. I really do. I still didn't win a big pot even playing omaha for 3 hours or so. How is that possible?
