Re: How do I get started in PLO?
My suggesions from experience would be:
1) Read the Ciaffone book, save the other ones until you've been playing PLO for a while.
2) Play very tight before the flop to avoid marginal situations after the flop.
3) Start out by drawing to and betting only the nuts. It's ok to bet top two pair or non-nut sets but don't go broke with them.
4) Don't build big pots with aces or kings.
5) Never play the nuts or good hands passively. For example if you flop the nut flush, lead out.
Basically what I did when I started out was nut peddled and never raised before the flop. Now I play completely differently but I was a winning player at low stakes playing this way and gained a lot of experience and reading skills.
