67 Bhoys Omaha Hi Lo DYM challenge, final results.

edited December 2011 in Poker Chat

The Omaha Hi Lo DYM challenge is to try to make a profit during the month of December, playing Omaha Hi Lo DYMs.

I will be trying to do this using the table below, sarting at level 1 and trying to progress as far as possible without losing.  If I lose, I will start at level 1 again.

I will be posting an updated table as I hopefully progress to see If I can make a decent profit in December.

    Best i got last month was 10 in a row mate, then it was back to level 1.  Hopefully I'll beat that this month.

    Okay 1st attempt came to a halt at level 4, resulting in a £3 profit. So back to level 1, I played 1 more game which I won(highlighted in green), so start today at level 2.

    So are you just 1 tabling then? Because obviously you can't load up the level 4 table til you know you've won the level 3 one?
  • edited December 2011
    Good luck 67!

    How did you devise the game selection plan? Was it random, or some kinda strategy behind it?

    Posted by DOHHHHHHH
    The strategy behind it is, once your in profit to lose as little as possible of your gains.  I also reckoned that the further any run goes, the chance of variance popping it's ugly little head up is increased.  So the levels are designed to retain as much of your gains as possible while moving through the levels.

    very best of luck with this Craig,

    I've just ventured into the world of Omaha and that seems complicated enough for me. I've heard about Omaha HiLo but absolutely no idea how its played. 

    Hope you run good and enjoy this :) xx

    Posted by Lambert180
    I'm an old dude mate, 1 table of hi lo is enough for my old brain cells.

    But if anyone wanted to multitable at the low levels and say won a £2.25 when it should have been a £5.50, then just play the £5.50,if you win then you have alreay have the next level in the bag, or if you lose then you have already got level 1 in the bag.  there is nothing to stop you having 2 or 3 runs going at the same time.  Just highlight them in different colours.

    Thanks Lorraine, I know your venturing into Omaha, so good luck. Hopefully one day you will try Hi Lo.  It does hurt the brain at 1st, but once you get to grips with it, it is a great game to play.  The DYMs are a bit expensive for beginners , but there are £1.10 tournaments during the day if you fancy having a go.

    I will be there to try and put a stop to your challenge.

    Good luck with it !

    Nice if we can get a few more people playing hilo

    I play Omaha and I know how to play hi/lo as far as the rules of the game, but I just can't get my head round aiming for 2 seperate hands and how that would affect your hand selection.

    Attempt 4 was going ok until a certain player from the Dumfries area(U know who you are) took me out at level 7.  Starting at the beginning for attempt 5.  Updated table below.

    Lol, I know Jim mate, and your right.  Nice to see you trying the Hi Lo.  Look forward to seeing you at the tables.

    Okay maybe I'm a bit jaded, attempts 5 and 6 didn't go too well, an out at level 1 and an out at level 2.  A loss for the 1st time of £2.75.  Still £22.00 in profit, so not too bad.  Calling it a night.

    Updated table below.

    Hi 67Bhoys, when I first saw your table I was well confused, lol. Now I see how it works I am very interested and will keep a close eye on your progress. I love these alternative methods of BRM and this one looks great, last longer than 2 games and your guaranteed to bank a profit. Think this will be a really popular thread and I would expect people to follow the strategy if you manage to post some good results. Very best of luck sir!

    Sorry for the confusion, but i devised this table for myself, not thinking I would be posting it up here, it probably needs a bit of an upgrade.  As for the BRM, I love playing HiLo, but wanted to play profitably.  This was the idea I came up with and it certainly works for me.  I won't make a fortune, but I certainly don't lose.  If your interested, my table for last month is posted in Dudeskins DYM thread, I had 8 outs at the 1st 2 levels but still made over £50 profit.

    Update early today, as I am playing in the DTD.  7th attempt faltered at level 2 for another loss of 50p :(  Attempt 8 faring better with level 4 complete, so should re-coup my earlier losses.  Updated table below, current run highlighted in green.
