Starting Over
So with PLO just destroying me I'm going back to NL. With my depleted bankroll and confidence I'm gonna start off at 50nl and work my way back up yet again. I will return to PLO at some point however it's just not profitable for me right now. I'm curious to see how my results would've been if I actually ran at EV, but no use crying over spilled milk. I am interested to see how PLO has helped/hurt my NL game and I'll report back in a few days.
I owe $100 a piece to both charities that commented on my blog earlier this month. I wasn't able to get to 170 pounds more or less because it was just gonna take too much work. 175 is already pretty thin for me and being winter in Rochester I didn't feel like putting in the extra work. I honestly just can't wait for practice to start in a couple of weeks and being out on the field again. Add in golf outings and it'll be much easier for me to get down to 170 if I want to.
However I do what to get a gym membership in the near future since I haven't worked with weights since my freshman year in college. I actually gained 10 pounds of muscle my first year but haven't been back since I stopped playing baseball.

Trade PLO coaching for NL coaching?

Definitely in about a month, I need to build up the roll a bit before I go back at it. I'll shoot ya a PM in a few weeks.

You should make videos about coaching each other!

You must be tall if 175 is thin!
