Oh! And I got to check off one of my Replay bucket list items and play some heads-up O8 with michelle40 (rank 156), one of the players whose Omaha Hi-Lo game has most impressed me since I’ve waded into those ring games more often.
I was playing really well and up about 6M after maybe 40 hands or so. Then she stacked me 
UPDATE (Nov 1)
Up to 940M
most of it right here
River-Killer had been doing that a lot, like every couple orbits just massive overbet shove into a small pot on the flop. Showed a few premiums like QQ and stuff. So I started taking flyers with junk in position to just try and catch him overplaying 1pair.
Nice when a plan comes together 
UPDATE Nov 4
Down to 735M
various losses HU and short-handed at 500k/1M vs. BobbyMora and others
-down about 80M HU vs. DARLINGGIRL; flopped trips vs. her full house for a cool 50M chip pot (thankfully she just called rather than 3bet the river, coulda been way worse)
-up about 40M HU vs. @MansoorH, which is always lucky bc he’s an absolute monster heads-up
-as a consolation prize for getting my butt thoroughly kicked, at least I did win the biggest pot of the session and finished up about 100M on my last buy-in
I am really proud of my line there, particularly the micro donkbet to induce on the river.
Hey, according to Replay that’s the 2nd biggest pot I’ve ever won on the site. Neat!
Thank you @Lelaina and @_Rain for railing some of my sessions; seeing you guys there motivates me to keep playing my A-game even when the deals don’t go my way <3
I was down 250M in 2 hours before that last buy-in; really had to “trust the process” if you know what I mean! Shewwwww!
Sometimes, the real journey is the chips we saved along the way <3
@Yorunoame how’s this for a low-equity bluff? XD
As soon as I checked on the flop I started thinking, “now who’s got the most QT here?” Idk if it’s actually SB but hey confidence is good right LOL
Aww, : … (
Played one of those 1 mill ticket sng’s, my first one using a 100k streak ticket, come at me with your AJ when I am power stack!
Lucky me
So far I have faced an all-in on the river for 40bb or more on perhaps 12 occasions. I think Villain has shown up with a hand other than the stone cold nuts maybe 2 of those times.
Don’t call huge river all-ins without the literal nuts! It ain’t worth it!
@Younguru congrats on getting 2 1 Billion bro amazing accomplishment! I might catch up 2 u in 125 years 
UPDATE: Back up to 840M.
Several sessions winning between 2x and 4x buy-ins at 100/200k and 250/500k.
Feels like you kinda gotta earn your respect with these Elite Stakes guys. Now that I’ve posted a few winning sessions and gotten called with a strong hand several times, my bluffs are getting through more often. This in turn gives me more confidence to keep taking spots when I see them.
At the same time, I’m learning who likes to exploit/who will call down with A high and being more judicious with my thin value bets and bluffs as I continue to adjust to the field. Some spots where GTO says you have to bluff, I have started passing on sometimes as I feel confident Villain is ready to call anyway.
Couple really big laydowns in spots where I just don’t think Villain is bluffing, and despite being near top of range, my hand doesn’t beat any thick value. Not sure if they’re all correct folds but the bankroll is trending upwards, so I’ll take it!
Also can I just say how utterly wild it is the bankroll some players will sit these games with!
Every day there is at least 1 person who shows up for a little while with 50-100% of their roll on the table. NUTS.
EDIT - 880M 
It’s a trap!
UPDATE:
November 10, 9:26pm PT. Sitting 7-handed at 100/200k, @MansoorH isn’t around, I’ve got 87M in front of me with more than double anyone else, and for the first time in a while I feel like I’m the best player at the table. 
UPDATE: Nov 11 - 975M
Hey! First time I’ve seen my name on that leaderboard instead of the MTTs
De-Weirdo is TOUGH.
Back over 1B for the first time since switching from 90% tourney / 10% ring to the other way around.
@Excaliburns trending up! 
Medic!
This lowdown on elite stakes ring higher-ups is brought to you by Transfusions R-Us.
Is your bankroll thinning by the hand?
Is your bankroll management not what it used to be?
Is your A-game costing you 250 million in two hours?
If you answered yes to any one of these questions, you may be in need of a transfusion of funds!
