Live PLO Anyone?
Glenn started feeling a little better yesterday afternoon, so we joined the Riverside tourney last night. I won the first hand with KK, and never won a hand after. I had so many good starting cards, but couldn't steal a pot with a mask and gun. I was one of the first out.
Glenn, however, cashed in 5th and got some money out of it. The BB was all-in blind. Glenn had TT and raised the pot. A clueless player cold called with A4o (??). Glenn goes home on the river.
The 4/8 game was great, and I doubled my money within the first 30 minutes or so. I lost some back, but after tourney expenses ended up about $175 up, due to a promotion.
Today is the event at Binion's I wanted Glenn to play the most. It is a super deep stacked $500 event. He doesn't feel up to playing :(
Tomorrow is a PLO event at Binion's, mirroring the $1500 PLO at Rio on Thursday, with good starting chips and a decent structure. I'm thinking of playing.
I read on 2+2 that Binion's got a 1/2 blind PLO cash game going the other day. They are having a "Summer Omaha" special. The rake is 5% up to $2 on any Omaha game. Plus players in any game get paid $2/hr. to play, which is good for comps, meals, etc. Plus the room rate is only $29. For a grinder rock like me, these extra goodies are heaven.
Between winning so much at cash games, and losing my tourney buy-in's, I'm staying just slightly ahead of the game. So stupid that I can't sit out of tournaments, but dang, how often do I get to play such a myriad of games (online doesn't count!)?
Anyway, I'll try to update if we decide to head up there.
