More PLO

Grrrr. Obvious flush draw gets there, me on the overpair charging the max.

+$2

Same villain sucks out on me again, but then I win a healthy pot when my mega-wrap straight hits (a mislick has me checking the river) and then another with AA that flops top set. Two-suited, so no slow-playing. I did have the blocker for the nut flush in the As, though, so maybe half-pot would have been OK.

AAXX in back-to-back hands. The first I have to ditch to a suited flop, the second I slow down on the river when a convoluted straight gets there, but my flopped set of threes (AA33ss) shows up the aces and is good enough for a big pot.

Wildthing is calling extremely light, that stack should be donated to the table eventually, here. I mean, "she" calls this flop bet with T987, no diamond draw. WTF?

And wildthing just doubled up, making that stack an even bigger prize. Note the hideous calls to hit the gutshot. Target fully acquired.

CRAP! Wildthing has left the building.

Villain makes a disciplined fold with an underboat to my AT.

So bummed that wildthing is gone...that was free money.

Putting Ollie to bed...

$8 --> $14.56
50 Hands

Next table.

I thought I was dead to a random 3, but couldn't fold to .70 or whatever. Turns out it was just a random donk.

I flop the nuts and random donk #2 pays to chase a four-outer, and misses.

Top set turns into a boat on the turn, and a couple villains see it to the river for a $4.75 pot.

(9762ss) When flopping the nuts goes horribly wrong.

(AKQJds) Oh for fuck's sake, how can a guy make a call like that? How? Donkland to the extreme. I see what he has and I'm like, shit, I'm still in pretty good shape! No luck. So fucking annoying. A ridiculous call, this is about the only hand without an overpair to that board I would have played PF that way. How can I completely miss the flop with that hand?

+$6

Villain wasn't a maniac, so I had to give him credit for the nut flush to my second nut flush with his river minraise.

Cool, an opponent gets the holy grail of PLO hands, AAKKds, and they hold up when it flops double sets. I had QJT for the big draw, but knew I was dodging hearts and boats and bailed.

aznxmoss is a fucking lucksack donkey boy.


+$6

$18 --> $8
84 Hands

New table

My draw gets better, and then hits the nuts on the river, which get paid by two pair.

(AKT6ds) I work my stack up nicely, then get this tough hand. Villain announces an overpair with his pf raise, and I flop nicely, hitting trips that are almost certainly good. Villain calls the flop action, and a queen comes off, and he check-raises me for my stack. QQXX tells a convincing story, and I release.

(AKKJds) Ryan plays bad, loses a bunch of sugar. I tell you, the premium hands can be a curse here just like hold'em, hard to let go of even though villain is screaming at you that you are beat.

I'm done...

$6 --> $7.50
61 Hands

Will update the sheet later, I'm tired.
