Okay. Here we go. Mixed Omaha, late regged after getting knocked out of Main Event.

25k starting. We rotate between PLO8, Big O, and Limit O8. Last played in 2019 & cashed.

It started an hour ago.

Nothing like O8 where a hand like A23K double suited gets a 944 flop and you gotta check fold. I've had several good starting hands last few mins, all bricked. Down to 21k. #pfa72

Death by 1000 cuts. Probably 0-10-1 in entered pots now. Haven't lost a single big pot, but still zero wins and 1 chop. I have 12k left. #pfa72

After losing a few more and falling under 10k mark, I had 235KQ on button in multi-way limp pot in Big O. Bet A57 two heart flop when checked to me, 2 calls. Turn 5, I bet 3k, one guy check raised me all in. He had heart draw & worse low. Brick river. Up to 20k. #pfa72

You'd think AA28 double ace suited was a good hand. Down to 16k #pfa72

Surprisingly I've chopped almost no pots today, despite it being a split pot event. Just lost a whole lot of them outright, but not a single one was large. This probably sets a record for most pots I've lost on Day 1 of a WSOP event. Not kidding.

Got it in pre on Big O with about 9k with AA26J suited. Was against a big group of non-paired cards without A2, won with a straight. Then just made huge river laydown on Kc9c9s5c7c board. 16k at break. #pfa72

I've spent almost the entire event between 9k and 18k stack, which is higher unlikely at this point, but here we are. Going to try to make some progress as we move to level 10. #pfa72

Got it in pre in Big O with same Euro big stack, I had AA45Q suited, he had A23JK. AT3 flop looking good for me, 7 turn, Q river. He oddly wins high & I get low. I remain at 16k. #pfa72

Back to 30k. Shoved turn on 954Q two diamond board. Was happy to see him fold. Bryce Yockey just showed up with a ton of chips as usual, but we only have 20 min left. #pfa72

My low starting hands have just been awful today. A334 double suited completely bricks, and its limit so it was more expensive pre. Both opponents hit board big. Down to 24k. #pfa72

Second to last hand playing 3k/6k O8. I have AKT3 button, 3 opponents, flop KJ9 two diamonds. Check to me, I bet, 1 caller. Turn J. Check/check. River A. Guy bets 6k. I have 10.5k left. I call, he erroneously thinks he has heart flush (only 2 hearts out). Up to 43.5k #pfa72

Final stack 43.5k. That last hand described was the second to last of the day. Highest stack prior to that was 33k. Amazing I didn't bust in 10 hours. Very odd Day 1 for me. #pfa72

Imagine you play Day 1 (10 hours) of $1500 Mixed Omaha event, lose first 15 hands you play post flop, & never win a big pot. Obvious bustout? No. Somehow I sat super short for 10 hours and finished at my high of 43.5k at the very end. Still short but alive. Day 2 at 2pm.

Money still awhile away. Need to knock out about half remaining field to cash. I'm about 60% of average chips, I think. Lots of work to do. See you tomorrow at 2. #pfa72

Check/raised all in top set on QT4 board, he only had straight draw, and I made boat on T turn. Guy on right said he had TT! Wow! Was up to 81k, but got quartered next hand with A23 hand making only low, and lost a little next hand. 66k now, #pfa72

O8: Ax2h4xJh. Flop KT9 two hearts. Turn Kh. All in, he has 8 high hearts. I double off same guy as I did earlier. Breathing room again (a bit) as I now have 47k. Laid down A269 on TT34 board the hand before in O8.

So far continuing the trend of "hanging around" shortstacked. I have never touched average in this event, and was well below most of the time, including now. Maybe the only one left who can say that. I have 54.5k at break. #pfa72

O8; Ax2d3dJx in BB. 3-bet SB pre, bet Q84 one diamond. Bet 7d turn. Bet A river. He had AQ so we chop. Needed that diamond river! I have 51k, 147 left. #pfa72
