First month of PLO 25NL 94% PLO 50NL 5% PLO 100NL 1%



I hope this month to finish watching all PLO videos on Leggo Poker.
Need to start discussing PLO more with other players or even contributing on the forums more in the PLO section. Overall I am happy with the process I made this month and finding my niche. Also was nice to become a Leggo Poker VIP and get amazing rake back deal, thanks to MATT. It pays to be a Leggo member.

GL to everyone in February.

Yesterday, On Facebook my girlfriend received a threat to her safety on Fb. This person has been creating random names on FB and threatening her safety. They even mentioned her phone # in the Facebook message. I am not exactly sure what to think. On one hand I always think if a person really wants to hurt you they would just do it instead of saying it and hiding behind the screen. But she is really freaked out and this person seems to be creating new names and messaging her. Whats my play here other then being by her side all the time. We live in NYC if thats of any help.

My dream has always been to be a writer. I have always wanted to write ever since a very young age of reading Earnest Hemingway. I've always idolized the Paris during the twenties with young writers and the mystique of the typewriter that has been used for so many years before the Computer came about. Today I purchased a 1958 Hermes 3000 typewriter. No It doesn't do anything but type and thats the good part is that there is no distraction when its just me and the keys to write. No Facebook, no forums just old school. I know many people will be like, really? But for me its a huge unbelievable brag.

I've decided to put the past behind me. The black friday which cost me 4.5k I will never see again.
I've decided to Join the Merge network. With my 400$ deposit for the new year. It cost me a bit of that roll just to realize how tight and boring Texas Holdem NL has become. Taken suggestions in the micro staked forums to try the PLO 6 max games. I will try to learn and devote 2012 to PLO OMAHA-HA.
I plan on watching all videos on micro having to do with the game, and try to improve in that manner.
Hopefully will post updates and such. I am excited for the Journey with 15days under my belt and some positive results.

Good luck to everyone reading this..

GRAPH FOR 15DAYS.

I have come back to poker to discover that I am way behind the learning curve.
I now have my sites on conquering 100nl. Very curious how long I can prolong this failure.
I would like to play poker with less emotions involved and more practical thinking. To achieve this I have hired a coach to help me in my process. In our first session we discussed extensevely preflop play and making sure i know how to spot a fish and always have one at my table.. One of the surprising things is that I was always focused on the regulars and not necesseraly the fish! Now I am more focused on the fish and trying to stay out of the regs way! BUMHUNTING here I come.

MY Goal is for the week from July 31st to August 6th to be up 2 buyins at 100 nl

Just finished my last session, for the week wrap up... dropped 100!
Deserved to lose as i honestly had no concentration and was just trying to put in as many hands as i could to reach the platinum vip status on AB.. I have 245 points left to go before i reach that status and three days, I usually dont have time to put huge volumes during the week!

Graph for week two (21st September - 27th)


Stats - still in the red



UP 242$

-Dennis

Rough start! Good End...

I started out rough and got many bad beats! However learned some things and tried to concentrate on playing tighter out of the blinds.. I think it has helped quiet a bit, and in generally i think my luck is just changed! I happened to win 11 buy ins in 1400 hands on saturday which was really nice! I look forward to posting more and increasing my knowledge in the game!

Graph week 1


Stats! im stilll trying to get out of the red!

One leak i have realised in my game is that i often call too much out of the SB and BB with marginal hands, i think that im going to make it a focus of mine to play much more tighter out of the blinds, in the next upcoming sessions,... Two losing hands that could have been avoided due to this ...

I also think i might drop down to 25nl to continue to work on my game and not cost my self so much money while rebuilding the flaws within my game. I have once again got destroyed over the recent days, but it doesnt matter because all i care about is improving my game at this point and learning from my flaws and other ppls advice whether it be coaching or hand discussions on the leggo forum!
Maybe it wont hurt to do a few sweat sessions..
As much as i am heartbroken about losing every session i play i am enjoying how involved im getting in the game...
