Rakeback, baby, rakeback. . .

Not all of us can flop the nuts with your regularity. . .

I can't believe you guys are still sitting back waiting to flop the nuts (and then you only like it if you have 26 redraws) [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I didn't used to play this way, but after seeing Dave flop top and middle set with a 9 out straight draw and the nut flush yesterday, I began to think there might be some merit to it.

60% NLHE, 20% LHE/STUD/O8, 10% PLO, 8% MTTs, 2% good looks.

So the answer is, "no not me" I guess. Going broke isn't an option for me and the variance makes me gnash my teeth. If I had a bigger roll I'd probably flip-flop NLHE and PLO in the above spread.

99% blind man's bluff and 1% stealing chips when they aren't looking. On a more serious note, PLO maybe my most profitable game.

40% PLO, 40 NL Holdem, 20 Omaha hi/lo. I don't know what you consider a sidejob, I'm just a student, but this is my only source of income

I make all my income off of PLO. Sometimes if I get bored I'll play NLHE or STT's. 99% of the time I play PLO.
I wouldn't call it a living though. In December I quit my job to play PLO full time (my job got in the way of poker.) It kept the bills paid. Finally in May I couldn't win to save my life. I went broke at the end of May. I went 2 months without poker. Finally I got a bankroll together and am now playing again. I am grinding it out at the $25 tables. I am starting an ebay store to put my eggs in more than one basket, but I have yet to make any money from it. So at this point all of my income is from PLO.
