Afternoon all! I'm back and ready to give you a little update on how the $400 PLO Event went at the Borgata and also my lil prop bet I have going on. At the PLO Event I felt I played really well. I went through the first few levels increasing my stack little by little. I had around 11k after level 6. Then I won two straight hands in the blinds and propelled my chip stack up over 35k. I was then moved to another table and got into a hand where against a kid who played his hand terribly. The blinds were $300/600 and I popped it to $2100 with AcJcJs4s. Villian called in the BB and we saw a flop of KsQs9c. He checked and I fired $3200. He called and the turn was a beautiful offsuit 10, which gives me the but straight. He checks again and I bet out $6,900. He had around $11k in the turn so I figured this would be the perfect bet. He would have to go all-in or fold. Well...he just called!! The river was a K which paired the board. He checks, I check. He shows bottom set of 9's. **Puke**. Oh well. A few hands later I was back up to around $46k then just dwindled down to $33k. With the blinds at $3k/6k I popped it UTG with KKQ6 to $21k. A guy repopped to $55k and I called to have him show AAxx. GG me. I ended up finishing in 29th place out of 250. They paid out 27 so it was a big disappointment for me.
Now to my prop bet. I have a little side bet with a buddy of mine. I have to turn a $100 deposit on Full Tilt into $10k within this year. The only stipulation is that I can't buy into a PLO cash game unless I have 10 buy-ins to the limit. So I am starting off at .05/.10 and I'm gonna work my way up. So far I have $183.05 in my account so all is well so far. I will keep you all posted.
Later!
