Its not so interesting to see what you do but WHY you do it. So far, you havent explained ANY of the plays. Ok now after 9:30 it started.

4tables would be so nice! Btw, sorry if this breaks any rules but if you have time+energy to review my 8game video I just posted then its here; http://www.runitonce.com/other/8game-video-by-me-feel-free-to-to-revie/ or direct youtube; https://youtu.be/hq5HfWZn_mk

Would be great if u did name the table. Since your talk is not that concise and on time, it was harder to follow your comments with the correct table.

I was just about to comment on how extremely little mixed game talk it was and mention how extremely much nll mtt-vids there are so I would also love some content for mixed. Understand that this fits in your typical grind better butI dunno, maybe its ok to 4table losing ev playing less tables but earning some on making better run it once videos. Sorry to be somewhat negative but just joined for mixed strategy and got nlhe mtts instead am a bit disapointed.

Maybe I am missing something here but I find assuming that he will fold 44 and 33 seems kinda sick to a simple flopraise. If he would then I would just raise TOOOONS of flops vs villain.

I also dont get why we need all these numbers and scenarios when it feels like we can achieve the best result for us with betting about 2/3 of pot on the turn and fold to a raise. x/c seems awful and leaves us shitty rivers most of the time and him raising as a bluff seems very very unlikely.

I hope I am wrong with several of my assumptions, if so I have learned something!

Yo! Final day is over and unfortunatly it didnt go splendid. All in all during these day I played 4921 hands PLO and won 121$ at a WR of 11,5 ptBB/100. It felt a little shitty with the last day -200ish but you cannot really wish for any higher WR than that. Last day also featured more interesting hands.

This day I was trying to take copious notes on the regs, mainly regarding betsizing. I should probably dwell more into the notecaddy-notes but the amount of info can sometimes overwhelm you and you think like "Ill get into that later". 

Im trying to not complicate thought processes way too much vs bad players but obv try to think somewhat balanced vs regs. So in this case, I was trying to figure out what my turnline would be depending on the card. With the given card the fold is easy but perhaps I should change stuff. So after a 4bet I tend to bet 1/3ish or perhaps sometimes 1/2pot. I probably CB too frequently btw. So here I go for a slighly small CB and he calls. On turn I kinda give off a lot of weakness but then again, this turn is not great in regards to his callings range I feel (good for him). 

When he calls, I would discount like 75% of all Q9x-combos and Q6xx combos. I could be very wrong but I feel that he would shove any 96xx. That leaves flushdraws and semi-wrap + pair combos. With that I think its a fold vs any 9-K on turn. Check/folding is superior to any type of bet IMO. But how about the action on the other cards? Checkcalling would perhaps induce bluffs/semibluffs and sometimes it goes check check and I can evaluate if i want to valuebet on the river. Do people agree?

Here is a biiiig hand I lost and I obv felt kinda retarded. I do think though that I couldnt have done very much about it given how he had played. So he was 70/50/4.7 and going to SD a lot. The sizing for me waaas screaming blockerace but what is peoples experience regarding this? My hunches can be way off. If this would have been any less aggresive or loose, this would have been a fold for me.

Btw, is it wrong to say that the line is a bet/call while +30 bbs deeper would be a fold? That was my initial reaction.

24rd march 2014: The quarter is over and all the sleep deprivation, anxiety and stress as well as my recent flu have almost left my body. Yesterday was the last presentation and I pulled up 4 tables when it was all over. I quickly noted that my focus wasnt there and decided to rest, watch some tvshows and come back tomorrow.

With the limited action available to me here, I am gonna go against my wishes and play both FLSH and PLO at the same time. FLSH I can autopilot pretty well while my B-game in PLO is a bit worse. I played a lot during christmas back home in Sweden and had the best month in like 3 years but I took out 85% of those winnings and since then, I have lost about 3k$ in like 10k hands. That means that I am inclined to play lower and so I have been playing at 0.5/1 SEK (equiv 8c/16c) with perhaps some 1/2 SEK mixed in. Good enough for me, I played xx hands, hit a few hands and played vs some fish that paid me off handsomely. Up 200ish$ after 95 min play!

Im gonna try to mark more hands and also use slice for EV-calculations. Perhaps I should be even more serious and create flashcards? In PLO I often call a bit too much, especially vs shortstacks, especially on paired boards with some sort of shitty draw + overpair or whatever. I should be able to calculate situations like that a lot better, the other day I made a call that I calculated was like 15 BB EV. It was something along the lines of me 4betting vs a utg raise, a min3bet with AA, flop came like 733 and UTG shoved. I kinda reasoned that a 3x would be kinda unlikely with a utg-raise/call but then that was just a stupid argument since the guy was like a 60/40 and thus have a lot more 3s then most players. Anyways, I dont remember the stack/betsizes but I just wanted to illustrate a situation were I loose money.

Anyways, gonna be active with posting hands etc these following days, I go to Hawaii on the 26th and I will play 8ish hours per day until that and perhaps some over there too.

I posted some graphs, pics etc with http://ehppoker.blogspot.com/ since its soo much easier. So I have had 3 proper grinding-days now during spring break and tomorrow I guess will be the last one.

________________________________

Here is a hand I played kinda shitty. The thought was that very few combos of 34x would call a 3bet pre, then even less would call the flop and then even less existed because of my blockers. I also thought it would be kinda unsual for any AQ to play that way and that he wouldnt put me on 34 either. I guess though that a lot of regs would play any set that way which didnt cross my mind.

Today I was kinda proud of winning an okay amount given I lost KKxx vs J8sxx straightflush KQT99 for 150$ and then the same scenario with nutflush (no paired board) vs a gutshot straightflush. I am pretty sure though I actually did a revenge on this hand

Anyways, sorry to post strategically uninteresting hands but I tried to stay awake and mark out something interesting but didnt find anything really.Tomorrow I hope to surpass 2k hands. Im trying to figure out a good schedule for me in regards to grinding omaha and staying focused. In FLSH I had it kinda nailed down but its in my backbone and I rarely play shitty and if I do, normally the mistakes doesnt cost me too much. In PLO or any big bet game of course a big pot played bad could cost like 10k of good play as makeup. I kinda want to play 8-9 solid hours 5 days per week but if I take too many breaks then obviously that will turn out taking like 15 hours and nothing else could be done that day, perhaps thats fine? I dunno, I think 4 hours 10:30-15 and then 22-02:30 would be kinda optimal.What I am trying to work on now is to think about my timing especially in regards to regs since I feel some have abused me. I sometimes found myself autochecking rivers waaay too fast and often give off that I have given up on the pot. I hope to get some nice hands tomorrow. Either way, I plan on putting in 5h every week during this quarter so hope to find something different to write about. So, one grinding day left!

Thanks so much!

Thanks so much! LHE is still awesome but it would be nice to be able to quickly 6table your prefered stakes anytime of day. That is kinda rare in FLSH for most stakes :(.

I like stuff like that but I lol'ed at the samplesize. You obviously havnt proven anything but it sure implies that they are beatable, a fact that I guess few doubts. 

You won 70 buyins after 25k hands? I am down like 30 in 5k hands and I have seen some guy I am sure was a big winner being down 350 buyins under all in EV or at least around that neighbourhood.

A guy btw posted this link to stats with PLO100 (different stakes I know) that shows that out of the 26 people that had over 200k hands at the stakes, only 3 people were winners.

Why not show all in EV btw?

3betting the BB is, and has not been uncommon at all. 

Isnt its a very very big raise with QTs secondnutflush with 6$ with 27$?? I would size it smaller.

Ouugh! Get a real mic! If you are in the mood for some higher quality then you can get a really good one samson meteor for around 80$

Debil means more or less instable/weak. I find the coach extremly irritating and more or less never funny and complaining about badbeats and bad luck like 25 times in the first 5 minutes but I guess it can be a matter of taste.

Not sure why but even though you seem to know your PLO I expected this video to be bad. It definetly wasnt! +++++
