That was painful.
My foray into Omaha is continuing to go incredibly bad. I’m now down about 18BI, running about 14BI below expectation. Today I got it AI with Aces a handful of times and didn’t win once (in ~2k hands). This one made me quit for the day:

Anyway, my FTP bankroll is getting short, so I’m going to take a few days off and study for a bit and then figure out what the next step is from there. I’ve been enjoying playing rush — people are insanely terrible at it. Had a bunch of spots today where I got it in as a 70/30 150BB deep but didn’t manage to hold or win in any of them (including 9865 vs AQT5 on 955, etc). There’s obviously a ton of variance in the game so it’s hard to complain, but when you’re just trying to get some hands in now and then it can be pretty brutal.
