12 years a slave (to awful PLO playing)
Hi there,
I have been playing PLO since my second year at university (2009) and have dedicated significant amounts of time playing both cash and MTTs, the latter with far more success than the former.
Sadly if I am being honest with myself however, the lack of actual study and the constant “shot taking/burning my bankroll playing too high” has finally caught up with me. I am about to become a dad for the first time and it is time to take responsibility for my financial decisions (that and the thought of my own son considering me, at worst a total degenerate and at best a losing player, is too much to bare!)
So here we are, my working background is that I own and run my own businesses (both in the climbing space in the midlands of the UK and both shut thanks to COVID) and despite that being stressful it does leave me with a decent amount of time to really dedicate myself to actually getting better at this mad thing we all seem to love called PLO.
I have been playing on PartyPoker whilst I restart my learning journey and have set myself the goal of playing 40,000 hands at PLO50 before I really start to look at changing stakes or assessing my win rate.
I started the Mastermind course thinking I would jump straight in at the crushing PLO200 videos, as after all I have been playing the game for over a decade…and I now find myself all the way back at the PLO transformation sections (week 3 currently) and loving the humbling experience of realising just how terrible I am at certain areas of the game!
I have attached below my first 4.6k hands, which just goes to show how good the course must be and just how pure I have run to start off this journey…long may that last!
It would be great to meet other people also taking the jump into PLO50/100 and get involved with the community, so I look forward to meeting you all as this journey progresses!
