Yep Copenhagen, plan is to move there in the first week of August. Is that where you’re currently based?

An update - although I do still want to kick off a stream and YouTube channel, I’ve decided that it’s best if I wait a few months to really make a concerted effort. I’m moving to Denmark in a few months which will mean I’ll need to pause playing for a while until I’ve got Danish ID and can create a new account, and I’ll also have a lot more time at that point to stream consistently. I think I was a bit over-ambitious thinking that I could stream consistently already, life is getting in the way at the moment. Thanks to everyone who watched so far, I’ll update this thread once I’m able to stream consistently again!

Forgot to add, for anyone interested I’ll be streaming the community league with no delay and cards hidden from 19:30 tonight and same tomorrow night. And it’s PLO 😁

Thank you very much! 2) agreed, only going to stream stuff that I enjoy doing for sure, but I’ve always liked the community side of replay and am competitive so will join the league (although no shot of winning the spring league now) 4) that’s kind of reassuring me about PLO400 as sometimes there are no games at 200 and loads at 400, so I suspect that’s when the games are good. 5) from what I can tell the rake at PL25 is reasonable now, I know it was something we wanted to improve in my time at Unibet but never managed to. 6) my pleasure, although you’re forcing me to reinstall FB messenger now! Will get back to you ASAP and hopefully we can arrange something. 8 ) thanks, just watched it back and have no idea why I so happily called behind with that trash. It may have been because of the previous table dynamic as I can see a few large stacks but may have also been a brainfart.

Hey both, hope you guys are well! Thanks a lot for the feedback. 1) Much appreciated! I’m going to try to continue to improve it so it’s as enjoyable & watchable as I can get it. 2) I don’t think I’ve seen a Unibet PLO cash game stream either and as it’s my favourite game I figured I’d focus on that. I think where my play session is the priority for me then I’ll stream PLO cash but when I’m streaming to primarily stream then I may mix it up a bit (I may even start streaming other games later on). 3) I’m happy to play and stream the league games, although there are some evenings where I’ll be putting my daughter to bed and won’t be able to get online in time for when the games start. 4) That’s really good to know, and makes me question whether I want to continue saving my bonus points to shot-take 400PLO now. I’m currently at 105,000 bonus points, plan was to buy a €1,200 ticket soon and half-stack 400PLO with effectively 6 buyins. That tactic has worked well in the past at 100PLO but it might not last long if it’s mainly reg battles. 5) Watch more of my play before you take me as competent 😁 I think I’m a long-term winner in the game (especially with some improved discipline) but over the last 30k hands I’m exactly breakeven (my bankroll has increased from MTT cashes). I really enjoy PLO though so I want to prove to myself that I can beat that game.With regards your question though, I lean way more towards an exploitative/exploitable game so the meta becomes really important to me. I think people are playing way too much out of position in these games, especially with dominated ranges, and a lot of regs I see aren’t adjusting enough when people start to get out of line. Their plan seems to become wait for AAxx to trap them and then they end up losing a 3-way allin with 25% equity. What are your thoughts on the meta, and do you mind sharing which stakes/aliases you play? I’m curious if we ever play together, I often play as canwefrend and ChooChooo. 6) Yep I work for a free-to-play poker app now (Replay Poker) and I really enjoy it. The transition between the different areas is a long topic but if it’s something you’re considering doing then I’m happy to jump on a call one day to chat about it more, getting more people who love poker into the industry is something I’ve been passionate about for a long time. You’ve given me an idea for an interesting topic for a YouTube video too, so thanks 🙂. 7) Good shout, I’ve changed the setup to just show 4 tables at once with the option for me to focus on 1 table if needed if desired 👍🏻. 8 ) It might have been, I was finding it hard to focus initially while trying to make sure everything was working fine. If it was later in the session though it may have been intentional and potentially a leak. If I were to play that hand in that situation it would normally be because I’m targeting the MP raiser or expect the pot to become multi-way because of the players in the blinds, but if I’m targeting the MP raiser then I’d hope I’d be 3-betting. Do you know roughly when it was in the stream, I’ll watch it back?

Thanks, I’m going to try to make the chat box a lot more readable before the next stream. If I can I’m going to stream on Monday night, otherwise I’ll be streaming the community MTTs with cards hidden from Tuesday onwards.

Good shout, I’m definitely up for doing that and I should be playing most (if not all) of those evenings. Going to go live with my first stream in around 30 mins, it’s a test stream but I’m fairly confident everything is working as planned.

Thanks! I’m a very open person so always happy to share stories and thoughts, hopefully there’s some interesting stuff in there. It’s definitely been interesting to be a part of the industry for 20 years, obviously there have been so many changes and so much has shifted and evolved in that time.

Hi all! I’m David and I used to work as Head of Poker at Unibet up until around 2019, before moving to the same position at iPoker (I’m a traitor and very ashamed of myself for that) before eventually moving on to work in social gaming. I still love Unibet’s software and finding myself with some extra free time a few months ago, I decided to play around with the current version to see if I was still a winning poker player (still very much TBD, but to give some background I used to play professionally up to NL5k until 2011, back when the games were a LOT easier). The main problem I have found with my game is that I can lack discipline, which can be especially costly as I’m playing PLO. I’m a slight winner since I restarted but decided to give streaming a go as I *should* be more disciplined with people watching, and I figure I have a potentially interesting perspective having played professionally for a decade and worked in the industry for a decade. I’m playing PLO50 and shot-taking higher, so the games are fun too. Right now my bankroll is around €5,000 (100 buyins) with 10k in bonus points which I’m currently saving towards a PLO400 ticket. I’m going to stream on YouTube rather than Twitch - I use that platform a lot more generally and think it has more potential than Twitch. I’ve tested my setup tonight and all seems good so I’m going to go live on Saturday 21st April just before 22:00 CET. I’m away on Sunday but from Monday evening I’ll be streaming most nights from around 21:00 CET. Hopefully I still know a few of the community members so feel free to come and say hi and support the channel, any feedback is more than welcome! You can find it at: https://youtube.com/@dpommo, once I’ve got some streamed content in the bank I aim to start creating VODs on YouTube too and if it goes well I’ve got some ideas to expand the channel in future.
