PLO Vegas
KeyleK_uk, Jan 16 2014
Hi LP! Hope all is well.
I have really concentrated on PLO for the last year or so and am feeling very rusty in holdem. I'm looking to play 2/5 PLO in vegas probs gonna start with 100bb sits until I get a good feel for whats going on. I am going to vegas with 5 friends 27th Jan - 11th Feb.
Does anyone have any suggestions of good places to play PLO in vegas, obviously fish and/or lower rake is really what I'm after (eV I guess) rather than a nice room etc 
Thanks in advance for replies.
EDIT: Looks like we're going through venetian deepstack series, so I guess that will probs be the best place to play?
Props to PokerStars

Hi LP!
My flatmate is a tournament grinder who has played about 4500 tournaments in the last 12 months or so.
Anyway on this day (last Wednesday) he was playing the big 162 and a few other tournaments (about 1 hour into his grind) when a stomach pain he had from earlier in the day when we were at the pub came back heavily. Fortunately I guess my ex girlfriend had an appendicitis 5 years or so ago and everything about this reminded me of that, all the symptoms seemed the same, so when the pain worsened and I could not see what else it could be we called an ambulance and asked their advice. They said if the pain got worse or didn't get better come to the hospital in half an hour. He left his tournies blinding out and we went to the hospital and to cut a long story short he did have an appendicitis, stayed in and had it out the next day.
He got a 'sick note' from the hospital, emailed stars, sent the proof of this and they refunded all the tournaments he was in when this happened to a total of $300ish. I feel like this kind of thing should be recognised, especially now with all the shady things that have gone on and are going on eg Party Poker. Pokerstars are the only really online poker site that give us a small ray of hope in an otherwise seedy dark online poker world.
Anyway, props to Stars

-I should have been a doctor, obv in the wrong profession.
-He handles intense pain really well

ME bustout 1D
KeyleK_uk, Jul 09 2008
ok this is the first chance i've had to blog since busting the main event at the end of level 3 in day 1.
I had an easy starting table so I was very lucky indeed, i folded KK to a 4bet in the first level - a guy made it 300 i made it 1100 and he very quickly 4bets it up to 4100 i thought about it for about a minute or so and then was just like well easy table and I don't know where I'm at. Obv he had K4s but I Can't be annoyed at my fold cos i had an easy table and I just didn't know where I was at in the hand.
Anyway my bustout hand - I'm on 21000 blinds are at 150/300.
A 20k stack raises up to 1100 in hijack, right next to him in the CO a guy makes it 3600 with 50k behind, on the button a crazy aggro guy makes it 10700 so there I am in the SB thinking the CO guy has a pretty good hand but the button is probs pretty weak and I'm just hoping for a hand, of course I look down at AKs and tank and ship my last 21k in. It folds to the CO who says "I probably have the 2nd best hand" and mucks his AQ, the button then says "Well I can't possibly fold sorry" and calls and turns over K8o.
J73
he starts to count up some chips to pay me off, I then say to him "Wait just one second" turn T, river 8.
GG
Damn if I won i'd been on 50k with only one relatively good player left at my table (the CO in this hand).
Grrrr ok well i'm gonna grind out some online/live cash i've had enough with tournaments until next world series lol.
other tournament bustouts
1500 nl built up to 11k, lost 8k JJ vs AJ then rebuilt to 8k and lost when i reshoved bb blind into AK i had 87 as it turns out. (blinds were like 200/400/50 or something)
1500 limit shootout. I get 3 handed with humberto and another really good online tournament player "goleafgo" if anyone knows him, anyway we get heads up with him having alot more chips and battle it out for 4 hours, at one point i had a 23k to 4k chip lead but to no avail he won and played really well so....
340 crapshootament at rio i bubble AJs vs 66.

Grumble + 'challenge'
KeyleK_uk, May 12 2008
Grumble
Ok so me and 3 other regulars are sitting in 2 tables of 3/6 and 5/10 hu each so we can wait for some games. Now none of these guys will play me which is probably a good thing for me because they're probably not much worse (if any) than me.
Anyway so then this guy "Heliga_ak" whose a nice guy but for some reason comes in and opens like 8 tables of his own, as many or more than all of us put together. Now I asked him about it and he said obv it was so that he could get more games, but I responded with "don't you realise that we're all going to just do the same thing and it looks really lame for the fish that there is 30 odd games open and only like 1 running". So anyway I opened a bunch of games and now the list is flooded with people waiting for games, and it just looks really lame. I mean it'd be no problem, if this heliga_ak guy was willing to play all comers ie, if he didn't sit out when I join then he can have as many tables as he wants its just pretty lame in my opinion - what does everyone else thing of it.
.Challenge
Ok challenge for today is sit with tables open and play all day (11 hours or so) now I started at 9:30 GMT i've only found one game and was 600 up at 3/6. I'll post results and graph for the day afterwards. This is to get an idea of how much can be realistically made in an average day - instead of poker tracker telling me i'm making 560 bucks an hour even tho obv i spend alot of time waiting for games which pokertracker doesn't take into account. The reason I call it a challenge is 11 hours is a long time to play straight and if I commit myself to posting results afterwards (I hate posting bad results) then i'll post w/e.
Oh while I'm waiting for games I'm playing GTA4 - awesome. Just did the first job for that little Jacob guy.
Good luck guys

March Results
KeyleK_uk, Apr 03 2008
Insights into the month as a whole
Well, it was quite an interesting month in general. While I only played 12k hands I played two live tournaments that took up a couple of days each and a cpl of online ones. Also I had a day where I played terribly, didn't lose THAT much money but butchered an AQ.. I Basically flat called the raise preflop (Which I like to do occasionally, when the games incredibly aggressive and I can easily stack a weaker ace/queen if the flop comes out nicely), flopped an ace, c/r'd him and for some crazy reason c/c'd the turn, I mean lead/call or c/r woulda been fine there but anyway he rivered his two pair with T5 and got my stack and I insta logged off and didn't play for like 4 days cos I'd literally played so bad that day. Since then I've ground up another few k.
Now looking for a 12 PTBB/100 winrate over 100k hands and think it's achievable not like my 100000 bb/100 I was going for before
My Last Session
My last session of poker was pretty funny, I was playing a donk heads up at 3/6, his stats were 47/10.32 with like a 35% call pfr, he limped loads of his buttons, infact most is his 10.32 pfr was him reraising me not the other way around.
Anyway, he bought in short for like 520 i ground him down a little and stacked him with this hand, pretty standard:

obv not much I can do or w/e but then I lost QTs allin on the flop vs 97 on a 97Xss flop, and J6h vs AQ on a KQThh flop so now he's sitting on like 2500 and i'm back to 600. Then I made some suicidal 3 barrels with my top pair and he station called me down each time and i'm back to like 1300. So basically we're like 90 hands in i'm heavily down and I know he's a station. Then we play for like another 200 hands and he's running like a god, like Q5 vs AA he turns a Q and wins a sizeable pot (like 400 after i checked back the river), but his agg frequency is like 0.67. And then he does something that is shocking, he starts actually folding to my 2nd a 3rd barrels with draws or 2nd/3rd pairs. And suddenly I can't value town him anymore. So I then play this hand:

And obv show it to him on the end, I then show him another bluff and he goes absoulutely insane (for him). Because literally he's raised 4 hands out of the 400 we've played sb to bb, all his raises are reraises on my raises. And then anyway he raises 4 hands in a row sb to bb all different amounts, and then the final hand of the match happens.
