Gl for rest of the month and hope you make priority
Played a couple of DYMs the other day, seems like theres a lot of fish on them.
The overlap doesn't become a big problem unless the buttons start overlapping, imagine if you're about to go all in on one table, another pops up from behind it and instead of jamming your AA, you jam 72o on another table and auto-fold your aces as you get timed out... Not good.
There is a lot of fish in them, which has it's advantages and disadvantages. Tbh, I much prefer having a decent reg on my left on the bubble who understands concepts such as ICM, as it means I can jam a lot wider in the later stages and they understand that the mathematically correct play is to fold a wide range of hands, whereas a fish will call because he has QTo and it's the nuts because it's 2 picture cards, but it still plays fairly well against my range which sometimes is ATC - Just not well enough to make it profitable for either myself or the villain long term to be in that situation to begin with, so an important skill in DYMs is to identify the players that will call you light and be happy to take a 60/40 or something, and adjust your shoving range accordingly vs. them.
Not a particularly exciting day today. Woke up at about 3pm, to find the book I ordered, "Pot-Limit Omaha Poker - The Big Play Strategy", turned up in the post, and miraculously fitted through the letterbox as well, so I don't have to walk down to the post office tomorrow, yay.
Played in the main and the mini, cashed in the mini (again) but went out of the main (again), which is slightly tilting as I'd be a millionaire by now if it was the other way around.
Want to increase my Omaha volume but want to get to my C4P target too. Hmm, decisions...
10PLO, +£5.42
Action Table 37, +£44.60
£5k Open (£22) - 139/309. trying to punish limpers by jamming when they have Pocket Kings, grr... Move the slider, then click the "raise" button if you're entering a pot. Comprende?
£1k Mini Open (£3.30) - 14/377, £9.61 (+£6.31)
PLO8 (£5.50) - 13/18, not played this in ages and played like a total fish.

Was going to grind today, didn't because the Cheltenham Freeroll was causing havoc at the time I was going to play - After loading up 5 tables and realising they were all running about as slow as a tortoise, I decided to give up until the freeroll finished. Will probably be straight back on the tables once I've finished posting though.
Inability to grind the last few days is really peeing me off as I'm starting to fall behind on getting into Priority Club now ¬_¬
20PLO, +£3.88
£5.50 DYM - W3 L2, +£2.50
Cheltenham Freeroll - 1600/2000. When will Sky learn that there's so much lag in these tournaments and they just can't cope with it? Got fed up with the lag and went all in with K3, got snapped off by 78o and lost. Meh.

Sit him down and tell that when you have you headphones on you can not talk, but when headphones are off you can talk
I feel for you, a lot of relations/partners etc.. don't understand why you can't talk and just get annoyed because they feel ignored - the same as going out to the pub or meal with someone and they start talking to someone on their mobile phone -
I remember you talking about buying a PLO book... Is it worth a read? Have you found it useful so far etc?
Hope you can keep finding time to play.
Jono
Your just going round in this vicious circle, where there is no middle ground, try and find some middle ground and give your Dad some of you time - Maybe you can talk to him about poker and get him invloved a bit more in what your doing, once you have his intrest then maybe he will get off you back some
Come on Evil see it from your Dads point of view, he doesn't want you to become a degen
He want you to go to uni - get a good job - and don't be a thicko like him
Whatever helps you Dad will help you play poker
otherwise bink a primo and move out )

Been reading the book for the last few hours (up to Page 176 now) and it's still really good. Definitely aimed @ PLO beginners with Hold'em experience, has a hell of a lot of practice questions in the book which are also of interest.
1. You will avoid tilt more by having a more varied life.
2. Variety really is the spice of life and family is so important.
All the best. Take care.
