PLO or O8
 

I have played poker for 2 years, first 1.5 in limit holdem, the last 6 month in NL holdem. winner in both format, more in NL in terms of money, don't have good pt stats( too lazy). now i want to try sth else besides holdem, be prepared for the future in a sense. not sure which format is better for me. I am pretty good with numbers, kind of patient, and usually play only 2 tables at a time. have play a few hours of PLO at 2/4 level, about break even i think. I have only read cioffone's omaha poker.

I know I need to try them both for a certain length of time to see if i really like it or not, but can anyone give any suggestion in terms of different skill sets required for the games? I want to put some effort into one of the games for now, not both, but not sure which would be better choice.

thanks in advance for your help

PLO. Gamboolers game.

PLO8. Patience game.

Flop play is very important in both. Determining whether you hit the flop sufficiently hard is the skill you need to develop.
