Bah, disaster of a poker week.

Didn't place in 12 Sit & Go tournaments. Sit & Go tournies are my bread and butter.

Was on fire with $0.10/$0.25 Pot Limit Omaha, but I guess the law of averages caught up to me and I'm only up $22 (Was up $70), but factor in the $70 Sit & Go tournies.... and I'm in the red.

I perplexed as to why I'm playing tournies so badly, it's not even that I got bad beats, I'm playing very poorly.

I'll probably need to re-read some tourney books and take a month off tournies.

Low Limit Pot Limit Omaha is a funny thing. (I condider $1/$2 Pot Limit high) First, you get a lot of people calling with nothing, and I mean nothing, not even a pair. And for those unfamiliar with Omaha, you get 4 hole cards instead of the usual 2 in Hold'em. And these guys aren't even calling on a draw. (A draw meaning he can make a 5 card hand like a straight or a flush).

That's where I made all my money, on these people calling with nothing.

Then there are the chasers, where they will chase until they're out of money. Nevermind pot odds, or whatever, just chase chase chase. Early on, all the chasers missed their hands.... but today... oh man... I think they hit everything... Gut Shot straights, flush draws, getting a full house when they have trips...

But that's where the law of averages comes in, if they have a 1/3 chance to hit their flush... and they haven't done it to me in 5 tries... it is bound to happen. But nevertheless, with my poor performance in tournies, I cashed out down $50USD odd dollars and minimize the damage finacially and mentally.
