-----This Blog Is Suspended-----

Just not playing enough anymore, when I get some spare time I have no enthusiasm for the game. Strange because this hasn't been caused by a load of bad beats or a bad run. I think I've just become bored by it having played for over 2 years on-line.

I do dabble in the odd cash session on Sun/Betfair/Sporting Odds and would play the MTT on Punters Lounge but there's nothing much interesting to write about. My reader might say there never was :)

Good luck in your poker, may start up again in the New Year if I regain my interest in this game.

Happy Christmas and a Merry New Year.

Omaha Hi/Lo Numptiness

Right, this post is to tell myself that the nut low on it's own in Omaha Hi/Lo is not actually all that good and that I must fold it if I do not have a Hi hand!

Now bizarrely the hand history has gone from Crypto's oh so wonderful new site and I only played it yesterday so I shall write it down.

I held A2xx, 6 players limped

FLOP: 468,

I have the nut low but not a lot else.
Dazzler (very slow and tight player) bets the pot and I call.

TURN: 468T

Dazzler bets the pot again and now I have to fold. It is so obvious he has A2 and a better hi card than me (at this point I had no flush/ straight draw and no pair). But like a complete Numpty I called turn and river bets and quartered the pot! Basically I halved my stack as no one else was betting.

STUPID STUPID STUPID!

I make a decent profit on these tables but this is not the 1st time I have played this rubbish but it must be the last. Thank you!
