Twitch PLO bankroll challenge
Hey all,
I am quite new to the PLO streets and will be streaming almost everyday to complete a BRC
We are starting with $400 at PLO 10 and moving up when we have 20 BI's for the next stake.
I hope you will join and support me in this journey.

Starting off Day 1 these are my stats. Low sample, but feels good so far!
Decent session.
My Heads up game needs a lot of work, super small sample of HU >500 hands, but never feel in control. I tend to use my 6max sizings from PLO launchpad, but anytime I watch HU PLO those sizings are not common.
Had a couple coolers Multiway 3bet AA82 vs 6653 OOP 8622ss. Feel like I played it well check calling into multiple opponents where I have a strong hand in a spot that's bad for my range. Shorty to my left jammed on turn and flop aggressor put in the rest. I had no flush draw or wrap blockers and knew worst case I had 2 Ace outs. Not mad... just disappointed.
Another brutal spot was 200bb effective. Flop bottom set with flush draw IP after calling a 3bet with QQ66 on 976ss. OOP 3better check calls 1/3rd and check pots As flush complete turn. We call and fold to pot size all in 120bb into 130bb.
Folding 2nd nuts feels gross, but I think villain is betting flop more frequently with Ahigh flush draw and check calling more Khigh. I did go half pot on turn when checked to and maybe he turned KKJT/8 into a bluff and fired it knowing its difficult for micro player to commit that much without the stone nuts.
Clearly a horrendous fold in theory, but @PLO10 we are far from it.
Looking forward to tomorrow. I have to go into the office for work, so I might be a little tired, but swing by the stream for a couple minutes @ 6 PST and say 'ello. Would appreciate feedback on the stream as well as my play!

For now,

Another successful stream in the books.
This stream is much more about improving rather than making money, so I said screw the nano stakes. I've proved myself at 10PLO while running 10 BI under EV and still having a 20bb winrate. It was time to move up and play PLO50 / PLO100. I only played a few hands and ran very well at the end of the session.
I would be lying if I wasn't extremely concerned about collusion rings in the online world. Especially on Ignition where players can swap in and out anonymously.
I think I will probably stick to 50PLO for a bit and know that a losing session live would cost me more than what I have online and would not affect me or my life in the slightest.
If I wanted bills I would play live, but skills are garnered in the online bracket.
Hopefully more people join the stream or want to reach out to me on discord to chat. I have no online poker buddies. Finding a group of like-minded folks would feel very fulfilling.
BR $686.46
Till tomorrow
