position in PLO is overrated

[Chaoslord]

it depends on the stacksizes. and its the same in nlhe or plo - for 20bb eff. position is not important because when u want to play a hand you either reraise preflop and are comitted or u call and on a favorable flop raise all-in / check-raise all-in, as for 200-300bb position is huge advantage

[SuperSnort]

i have to dis agree greatly. i find that position is paramount in plo, looking at my stats they agree also

Not sure if this will be articulated right.

Position is very important me. But relative position to what you're trying to do is more so.

ie, the float/check/bet is usually better OOP against the raise all pre and flop monkeys.
But playing marinal to set up future big hands seems to work better w/position.

Not to hijack. But I think table selection is almost as important at mid stakes.
