Omaha Accountability Thread

Omaha Accountability Thread

I'm making this thread mainly to hold myself accountable so I don't tilt.

I'm currently playing PLO 10 and have been having some success this month. I turned my $200 bankroll into over $500, but earlier today I tilted off $100 chasing after a 1 buy in loss :(

I feel that if I make my results public using this thread I will be less likely to do this type of thing in the future

I will also post hands if people are interested

A little bit more about me:

I have been playing poker for a bit over a year now. I started out playing hold em cash on my phone, but after blowing around $100 I decided to switch to play money on poker stars. I was a losing player in play money for a few months before I finally turned my 15000 free chips into around 3 million. After this I began to play NL 2 and turned my $20 deposit into around $80. Unfortunately I had a losing session one day and then tilted off that money + a little more playing NL25. I then switched my focus to plo for the first time, but was ultimately just a losing player at plo5 and could never really get off the ground. After this I swtiched my focus primarily to tournaments. I had some success early on, final tabling a few, and winning a few, but would go through long droughts where it seemed I would take a bad beat every tournament for weeks and months on end. I was playing, and mostly losing, in tournaments until about 2 months ago when I fully shifted my focus back to PLO cash. This has been a great decision for me and I have been consistently winning for over 20000 hands so far. Today was my first losing session in over a month.

In terms of studying, I have read a couple of Jeff Hwang's books, and also Jnandez's book. Both have been incredibly helpful to my game. I also have read a lot of hold em books, but I found that none of them were as heavy on strategy as the PLO books. I also used to study using GTO Wizard for hold em tournaments. I'm thinking about investing in a PLOGenius subscription, would be interested to know if anyone has found this site useful. Any tips around study methods would be appreciated. my study to play ratio at the moment is probably 1/99, even though I find that whenever I do study I experience a massive boost in my game. I think one of the things I struggle with is that I can read a book in a day or two, find that I'm applying what I learnt when I play, and it feels like I don't really need to study any more, since I'm now winning at greater rate than before. Would be interested in some advice on how to approach studying/ what studying really is.

Hopefully tomorrow I will be able to rebuild some of my bankroll, I will keep in mind that it may take a few days and try not to rush and then tilt trying to get it all back at once. I will not buy in to PLO50 or PLO100 trying to get it all back. I will play PLO10 and steadily get it back the same way I got it in the first place.

I also will update the thread daily.

I might post some hands tomorrow, I need to learn how to do that though.

Also I'm a bit nervous that people may discover who I am through this thread and get insights into my game.

Hopefully people will read this and be able to give me some advice.

Poker goals:
