So I finally got my new laptop tonight and it's awesome. It's a Sony Vaio w/the 17" screen and fast as hell. I'm so amped about it. I went with an aircard instead of wifi, I think it's going to work out best for me because of such a rural setting. Haven't broken it in with Full Tilt yet, that'll have to wait until tomorrow. I can't wait.
This is the one I got:

One of my biggest
Been playing a lot of $50 6 max PLO8 and having fun. I'm not up too much, but I'm learning a bit more. Had a couple of spazz moments that held my BB/hr rate down, but then played well immediately following for a solid recovery. I'm not sure, but I think this may be one of my biggest PLO8 pots to date. After about an hour of playing, I concluded a trap/feigned weakness was the only way I'd likely be able to stack him. I KNEW he'd think I was bluffing.

Funny, I posted this hand in the Poker Stories section of the FT Forum and not one comment. Should've posted it in the O8 section I guess. I wasn't looking for praise, although it was a bit of a brag post. I was hoping it would lead to some discussion though, because there are so many angles to the hand that could be discussed. Preflop, why? Flop play, why? Turn play, why? River play, why? Opponents actions that lead to the hand being played this way. Anything. I end up looking at hands in different ways from these discussions.
Omaha8 is sooo much different than hold'em and PLO8 is equally just as different from limit O8. At this point, I've found so little discussion that I'm just working it out myself. Working on different concepts, approaches, etc. It's interesting, while very challenging. Someone to bounce off would be nice.

A Few PLO8 HH's
So for my 1st session back after a week away, I decided to sit at the $25 buyin 6 max. Figured I needed to work my way back in to playing. All came right back though.

Fluffy Bubbles bets $3.75
Top Pair with nut flush draw, but a 2 wheels out there as well. No need to go too fast here, but I'm certainly not done w/the hand.
Zophar calls $3.75
Madmaniac21 folds
Gamblin4Fn folds
Goodiemobb21 folds
*** TURN *** [Jh 2s 4h] [Kd]
Beautiful turn card. Now I have top 2, nutflush draw and a straight draw. Fluffy hesitates, either made a set or didn't want to bet. Now I really think I'm ahead. If I'm right, they are WAAAAAY behind, if I'm wrong, I'm not nearly as far behind.

Hectic Month and a Half
To say the least, I've been busy. That's almost an understatement.
I had a big show that I do following my last blog, then immediately signed the lease on this barn that I was looking to rent for my business. It was pretty raw. It had last been used for steel fabrication and was filthy. It had never really been finished as a workspace either. Drywall was once added, but never finished, it had no heating system and the only current entrances were 2 garage doors. And no windows on the 1st floor.
I had to wait about a week and a half for some parts for my heating system so I patched and painted the second floor, including the floor itself. Thankfully this area was a bit cleaner and didn't need as much work. Was a little tedious though because I needed to use space heaters to keep the place warm enough so everything wouldn't freeze. Oh yeah, no water either, pipes would freeze.
Once I got my parts I was able to get my heating system installed. It's a pretty efficient kerosene system. Finally, I was ready to get working on the biggest, most time consuming mess. Had to fill all the joints on the ceiling, ugh. Hated doing that, looking up constantly. After that the majority of the work wasn't so bad, just time consuming
One wall that I was removing a garage door from and adding french doors to, had to basically be completely redone. It was so wavy and had several exposed pipes that I had to build a lathe system over the old wall and dry wall it again. I had to square and plumb the whole thing about every 20" squ. It was either that or rip out the old wall completely and build it new. Because it was structurally sound, it would've been too costly.
So I got those french doors in, the wall redone, added another set of french doors and patched and painted all the walls over the next three weeks. Had to pack and move everything(almost done with that), had a major show in NYC, came down with the worst flu in years on my birthday, all in the last two weeks. It's almost done though, yay. :/
Don't know if these photos will work, but here are some shots of the progress.
This shot , the part on the right, is the only area I've yet to finish, aside from a crown like molding I'm putting in. I have a lot of rough cut 4x4's that I'm going to stain and attach to create a post and beam look. The rest are sort of before and after.
I'm proud of the fact that I did every bit of remodeling by myself.
