Re: WSOP PLO8 Level of Competition?
[ QUOTE ]
Good responses...gives me some hope. Best case would be many players that play the game as if they are using an aggro NL holdem strategy or just plain don't understand PLO8 math.
BTW, post incorrect regarding dates. [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img] June 5 is Limit O8. June 25 is PLO8.
I'm going to play limit O8 at oceans 11 casino in San Diego this weekend to get some live experience before I donk off my money in Vegas...

The problem is post-flop you are going to get stuck with your hand very frequently. Take an example hand:
2nd level, we are still at $3,000. We open AdQd4h2s for $350, and get 2 callers, one being the Big Blind.
Pot is $1,100. Flop comes Ks 3h 6h. We bet $900, and some other player raises pot. At this point we are forced to see a showdown, even though we may only have 3 outs for the high.
Either way, I'm excited and should be fun event.
