They sent me a note on the reload. Have you noticed the numbers going down? 15% seems to be standard now for party. Ah, I remember the 100-150% days of yesteryear. <G>

I finished third in a 121 player Pot Limit Omaha Tournament on Noble Poker (I Poker Network). Since it was a freeroll, the money sucked, $50 for third. And I really should have finished higher. On the hand that took me out, I had the nuts flush and the guy who called me caught one of 4 outs for a boat on the river.

But I'm really happy about it. First, I had just about given up on PLO a few months back, and now it's probably my strongest game. That was totally work and reading Stuart Ruben's "How Good Is Your Pot Limit Omaha." The book isn't perfect and I sometimes disagree with him, but he sure runs you through lots of situations.

Secondly, I hadn't been playing many multi table tourneys. I usually stick to single table sit and gos. This finish encourages me to give them more chances. There is much more bang for the buck if I get good in the multi table format.
