Fancy some PLO tourney fun tonight?

edited May 2013 in Poker Chat

It is my PTP this evening, & I thought we'd try a little PLO tournament night.

There is almost no demand for PLO Tourneys, so normally only one is scheduled.

So tonight, there will be THREE PLO Tourneys, as follows......

7.10pm - £3.30

7.50pm - £5.50

8.40 - £1.10

If - IF - players want more PLO Tourneys, then they can help it happen simply by playing one or more of these.

If we get a decent few runners, we'll do more PLO evenings, & the Business will schedule more PLO Tourneys. Its that simple.

If time permits, I'll also be playing some PLO cash, & maybe some PLO DYM's, too.

    The three PLO Tourneys this evening now have, collectively, FIVE Entries. Three of which are me.
     
    I may have misjudged this one.

    Whoops......

    DTD: Document Type Definition, a set of rules defining relationships within a document?



    We could always play Best 2 Scores from 3 count instead :)

    applying the DTD rules to the 6 stalwarts playing all three we have the current leaderboard

      Best 2 Highest
    Tikay10 6 1
    POKERTREV 6 2
    GELDY 8 2
    FLASHJONNY 18 7
    GREGHOGG 20 9
    with Tikay at the top thanks to his win in the 1st MTT vs PokerTrev's 2nd

    but it is not over yet - TommyD is still live and kicking in the 3rd MTT, and with a 3rd in the 1st one could still take this down

    TommyD now in the last 3
    but if he finishes 3rd he will be in 3rd place as his 6 will only have a 3rd as the best placing

    Newsflash

    the PLO boombox is fully up and working - TommyD now hu and takes down the unofficial PLO championship

    goes out in 2nd, but with a 3rd in the first mtt that gives him a 5, taking down the (unofficial inaugural) DTD PLO league

    I played all three of these while playing 5 card PLO Hi/Lo elsewhere  (And several NLHE games).  It takes some getting used to but screen set-up is key.  It is possible to play different games at the same time, just takes practice and patience.  If you're going to try it, start small.

    If you're leaving you have to start your own thread.  It's the rules.

    Great fun last night, thanks guys.

    The numbers were less than I hoped (the three Tourneys attracted 13, 11 & 26 players respectively) but still a big improvement over the PLO Tourney numbers on a regular night.

    Rather oddly, the PLO8 night attracted quite a few more players. As a general rule, far more people play Omaha than PLO8.

    The PLO SNG's were quite busy though, I played 6 or 8 of them & never had to wait for the table to fill, so that's good.
     
    I'm working tonight (with Orford, sigh, on the Show) & likely to be very late home tomorrow after a meeting up north, so that's me done for a few days.
     
    I'll probably play some low buy-in PLO8 DYM's Friday evening, & through the weekend, if anyone is up for it. It's a wonderfully relaxing way to end the day.

    Oh, & many thanks to GELDY for keeping the "League Table".

    Not fussed that I won a Tourney, not fussed that I won the League, but I beat TommyD......YES!

    Tommy was so upset, he went & had a beer. Just a small one. By his standards.

    Tikay spends hours trawling internet for pictures of men who are as good looking as tommyd drinking beer. Internet win.
