Now the question is does this make me naturally talented at PLO? as I now have a win rate of 2500bb/100 hands.
I confess I made a small tactical misjudgment - er - I thought I had a str8 on the flop - it only dawned on me after that you only use two of your hole cards -oops. But on the bright side I did hit by the river
So - like all newbies I ask that
1] Is this win rate sustainable?
2] Should I turn pro next week??
Any help appreciated

Your win rate sucks, you can do better.
I think you should go pro today.A good education is expensive but ignorance costs more.

A little off topic, but this seems like a good spot...
The other night I was just goofing off 'cause I dindn't have long to play and I stumbled on a PS fake money No-Limit Omaha Hi/Lo Sng. Never played NL Omaha H/L so why not? Well, as soon as I signed up the baby woke up... yada, yada... I come back to the computer a little later and I'm being blinded out in 3rd place. So I sign up for another SnG. Everyone else must have signed up by mistake because on the first hand 6 people go all in. And just like that I am 2 for 2 ITM with a VPIP of 0%.
If you are looking to donk off a little tilt I recommend the NL H/L!!"There is a good chance I gave you a very bad description of something that doesn't work."

Interesting, but I highly doubt that would ever happen in Real Money Sng's.

i managed 3rd in a £1 STT without playing a hand...i forgot i had entered, next time i looked the computer it said congrats you came 3rd...the hand histories made ammusing reading...donkfest
on the subject of forgetting omaha's 2 cards from your hand and 3 from the board rule, i was dealt pocket quads in my first session...and i jammed the pot, and then everyone lol'd at me

I love him who is ashamed when the dice fall in his favour and who then asks: Am I then a cheat? for he wants to perish.
