OK, I have made a few posts over the past several months about my relative successes playing PLO8 MTTs. Along with the good, must come the bad. If you have small children, show them this and let them learn from it. I made so many mistakes in this hand that I should be banned from playing for a month!

Looking at it after the fact, I almost think that I was temporarily possessed. What causes this type of lunacy?

The set up: Stars $8+0.80 buy in, 360 players started, about 100 left. I'm in great chip position (in the top 10). Before you ask, I swear, I was sober.

PokerStars Game #14682130887: Tournament #73423360, $8.00+$0.80 Omaha Hi/Lo Pot Limit - Level VI (100/200) - 2008/01/19 - 21:40:04 (ET)

Terminal

If you read my last trip report, I had a brain fart on a live hand that cost me a good bit of cash. What is it about having 4 cards that makes you think you can't lose sometimes. I was sitting there watching the dealer pass chips off to the other two guys and wondering what the hell I was thinking.
