Sick PLO Session Vent

Note the divergence of the EV line and the winnings line. Pretty sick.



Often the 'all-in' EV line is deceptive, because you could get 95% of stacks in pre-flop with AAxx. Then if you get outflopped and the last 5% of stacks go in when you're say, a 70-30% dog, then the EV line will essentially show that you got your money in 'bad'. Which of course, you didn't.

However in this sample the EV line is actually quite representative of how horribly I ran. Heres a couple of the most gross hands. This first one is gross because I'm a arebig favorite when the money goes in on the flop, but then, to torture me, the turn card has him drawing dead to only 2 outs, which he then hits.

Then here we're essentially flipping. Though he has a minuscule advantage because there are 3 6es in the deck and only 2 Js.

Then a hand like this one, where I actually do get it in bad, but where it's a pretty sick cooler. On the turn with a nut flush draw, a 2nd nut flush draw, a gutshot and often a K being an out as well there are very few hands that I'm not at least flipping against, even with one card to come. He happened to have one that had me

Most of the hands that I lost were where I was flipping or 3-way flipping, almost always with me having at least a slight equity edge, but I lost them all. Brutal session.
