Poker Maximus 6 Roundup, Cash Game Downswing/Leak Busting, and Upcoming Live MTTs

I took a number of shots at a lot of non-NLHE MTTs during Poker Maximus 6.

$215 HORSE
$60 Stud8
$60 Stud
$60/$33 PLO
$60/$33 PLO8

Unfortunately, I only cashed in 2 of the smaller $33 4 card game MTTS (deep run in PLO, min-cash in PLO8).
It was a great experience, and i actually felt at least 0EV in many of the events.
I'm hopeful to review the HHs, as there were a lot of NLHE regs that really didn't understand the games, especially in Stud and HORSE. I kinda messed up a bit in stud/8, but it's ok and I can try to learn from my experiences.

I regret not playing any NLHE MTTs during the series, even though I may not have been +EV.

Unfortunately, I have been in the midst of a downswing within cash games, likely to recurring leaks and/or lack of adjustment to regs that need to be fixed.

Also, cash games are dying on Merge in general, so I'm looking to deposit onto Bovada soon.


Within the live world, I actually put in my first live poker session (NLHE...meh) in 3 months. Life has been busy + trip report writing.
I'm looking to travel for some non-NLHE MTTs by the end of the year.
