Bought in for $100 and cashed out 5 hours later for $424. No high hands, though had 3 posted that did not survive the half hour. Best one was quad 10's busted by quad kings. Only one high hand at our table which is pathetic. It was a volatile game with lots of straddles and raising. Experience has taught me that you can do well in this type of game, but you need to tighten up a bit in the bigger pots and get used to the variance.
Some updates. Played in 60+ player tournament, bubbled final table, no money, they pay only 10% of field. Followed up with losing day at Omaha, despite one hundred dollar high hand. Lost a little less than original $100 buy in. Really did not play well due to being tired after tournament.
Yesterday gave Caribbean casino tournament another shot. 30 players, $40 buy in, lousy cards but hung in with short stack to cash in 5th place for $80.

That's a very nice stack of chips sir! I like playing Omaha but I'm not very good at it because I just don't play it often. The variance is too crazy for me. Nothing is ever good until the river. It's kind of crazy. I'm going to attempt more Omaha one of these days in the 3-6 game at Jokers. Not too expensive that way.
I'm basically play 3-6 and tournaments. The 2-40 game at the Moose usually hates me. I took a 3-way split in the Jokers Saturday tournament on the 15th for a $300 profit and a third place this past Saturday for $170 profit. Believe it or not I won every single hand when I played AK. Weird.
Knock 'em dead and have fun! That's the most important thing.
