Ok, I'm going to preface this hand history with a couple of tidbits of info. I decided to mess around with some other games on FT (I rarely play anything but NL). I've been running ok so the thought of donking off a minimum buy-in on a game (I have very little experience at) seemed like a good idea. I ask you kind reader to review the below play (especially those who play PLO, or have a more astute knowledge than I, (99% of you) on the Donkey Scale*. (*tm pending). Please be gentle, but brutally honest.
Here's the Donkey Scale:
1-not that terrible
2-worth the shot (only 1 other 5 out there to make the str8)
3-you came to gaaambooool
4-keep your day job, you should have dropped it after he re-raised
5- I'm amazed you can breathe without instructions
