You're my hero. I wish more people treated the fish like that.

Yea but if the board paired you wouldn't be so happy with your play.

His aces full would have stung a little.

I'm hoping I missed a not-required "sw" somewhere in there.

Aside from driving myself insane with 50 BB downswings in 125 hands (the reason I'm on the forums instead of playing right now), LHE is too juicy with bonus/rb, etc.

I've made $800 this month in RB alone.

I might play a couple of sessions of omaha over the weekend. The % of fish to good players is so much higher than most other games.

you seriously cant imagine how bad your average plo player is. like remember full ring lhe tables that averaged a 65%vpip? they are as bad at this game as those players are at that game, except they are playing for significant money.

Well, I've dabbled.

I don't know the finer points. I generally just get board and call pot bets with naked flush draws, etc.

I play bad.

So you see my point?

Also, I pretty much wreck every LHE game I play these days. tongue.gif

You definitely should.

I think Holdem games must be quite tight these days because It is very obvious that HE players are taking a shot at Omaha more these days. It is very obvious the way they play AAxx and even KKxx.

It's like the days when you hope someone else gets dealt AAxx so you can call him with junk in position and outplay postflop because they overplay it everytime. You know how it is.

how about LO8 best of both worlds, and I think it is really easy to beat if you are just play 2/4 or 3/6 not to sure about 5/10

Definitely. I play some PLO8 from time to time and A2 seems to be the AA of PLO8. Noone folds it.

Also 1/2 Stud on Crypto is very beatable.

well done mr B.

i'm strongly considering learning PLO8.

if i signed up to Full Tilt through PSO, can i get RB on my existing account?

No, that's exactly what I did for FT. I emailed them and they said they couldn't since I signed up through another affiliate.
