Where to play O8 online
 

Hi guys, I'm looking for online O8 action where I can get a bonus. I've already used my 100% for stars and FTP. I was thinking either AP or UB, but from what I've seen there is not much O8 on either sites, and from what I've read on here both sites take forever to clear the bonus. Am I wrong about these two and are there any other sites with good bonuses and O8 action.
Thanks for any help.

ap is the easy and correct answer here. or an ap skin (heck, do one, then the other, then another skin too) has a fair number of lo8 tables, usually starting at 2/4 limit. get rb with your bonus and it goes pretty quickly.

ub lo8 is pretty spotty lately.

Good action at Cake Poker and a lot of newbies learning the game since it was added just a few months ago.

I'm not really sure what the point is in playing just to release a bonus. If you can make a good hourly rate at a site, the bonus is not even secondary, it's pretty far down the list. Stars has limit andpot limit cash at every level and tons of tournaments. You'd do well to keep playing there.

Yea, I did appreciate being able to find a game at Stars or FTP whenever, but the 100% match bonus is certainly nice. BigBadBabar mentioned an AP skin. What is this?

AmPm - I dont know the answer offhand, but would suggest the rakeback & bonus forum to make sure you get the best deal. I used raketherake for AP & FT when I started online, and a few sites since & they do a great job. Unpaid promotional announcement lol.

Re: Where to play O8 online

Stars suck for Omaha!!!! Too many people like me there.

Absolute has limit Omaha 8 running from .10/.20 up to 1 or 2 short-handed 25/50 tables at night (CST and EST). What limits are you interested in playing?

There are almost always 4 or 5 2/4 and 1 or 2 3/6 and 5/10 tables running. The PL and NL O/8 is pretty much confined to low stakes tables but there are always a few of them running. There has definitely been an influx of more higher limit players in the last few months at AP.

When I played last year at school I usually played 1-2 plo8 with decent success. My problem is always trying to step up too fast with an inadequet roll or playing in a too expensive tourney. Definatley trying too work on that type of discipline this year. I will mainly be looking to play 2-4, 3-6, and 5-10 limit. I deposited to epassporte yesterday so it will be Monday Aug. 8 till I can play but I'm going to watch stars and Ap for the next week to see what kind of action they have.
