WBCOOP Event 2 2010
Event 2 in the World Blogger Championship of Online Poker is starting shortly.
Event 2 is a Pot Limit Omaha tournament. I don't think I've ever played a PLO MTT and it's been a while since I've played PLO cash games.
I had some free time today which I used to give myself a refresher on PLO strategy, which I hope helps a bit. I don't have huge expectations for this tourney but you never know.
I noticed some of the PokerStars Pros are in these games. In WBCOOP Event 2 I noticed acoimbra, Boku87, Goral and Henrique. P.
First break update:
I made it to the first break which was a bit of a surprise and through sheer luck. I missed a lot of big draws but I got it all in with the nut flush draw on the flop against 2 pair and an open ended straight draw and managed to hit.
Later on I was holding 2 pair and made a bad call all-in and managed to suck out with a rivered full house against someone that couldn't let go of an over pair. I got really lucky but considering the board he should have slowed down. Lots of people play Omaha like NLHE which gets them into trouble.
There are a ton of people sitting out. I'm a bit rusty at PLO and short handed PLO doesn't make it any better for me.
I'm in decent shape. About half the field is gone, a good number sitting out and I'm in the top 15%.
Shortly before the 2nd break and I busted out on a pretty crappy draw. I over-adjusted to a short handed table and an aggressive player and wound up picking the wrong spot to tangle with him.
