To Brian...questions for 6max plo -

You've stated several times that a large part of your success comes from your opponent/session reviews before/after you play. What kind of specfic stats/tendencies are you looking for? Do your opponents leaks become more difficult to detect as you move up in stakes? eg there aren't many 99/88/7.0 maniacs in the 200/400 game.

What's your opinion on having competent LAGs on your left? The consensus seems to be that we want LAGs on our right so we can control them better/play in position. While this is understandable, I don't mind having LAGs on my left and I just try to adjust my game accordingly. This makes me think outside the box and this can only make me a better player, right?

If you had start all over again in order to get to where you are now, except quicker...what would you do?

Thanks.

A brief explanation about this would be great.

To Brian - As the stakes become bigger and bigger in such a high variance game as PLO, how do you cope with the mental aspect of losing a siginificant percentage of your wealth in single sessions? Granted bank roll management plays a part, but even with 100+ buy ins roll for a part time player you can easily lose 10%+ and feel like you couldn't do anything about it.

Was there a point in your poker career when you came to terms with this and became a better player for it, through managing your emotions better than most of the competition?

Many thanks
Catt
