Software for playing online
Like many players I'm still quite weak in my Omaha Hi game. I've played a lot of NL and LHE and thus become quite accustomed to using PokerTracker and AceHud to help accelerate my learning. My question is: Is this still relevant to Omaha? Can you really use PokerTracker when the equity difference between two hands is so minimalist? I find it difficult to see how AF% would have an impact given that people very rarely bluff in Omaha.
Any feedback appreciated! |

Re: Software for playing online
the short answer is yes, the same programs clearly apply for PLO in the same way that they do for NLHE

I doubt it applies in that you can see who is a good player from just looking at stats

You need to talk about the stakes and type of plo you want to play. full ring vs 6-max vs hu. Search past threads on vpip for some discussions.

[/ QUOTE ] IMO, it is not so much a 'these are the numbers you should shoot for if you want to be a winning player' type of thing as it is a comparable statistical rate between your opponents. At least at the higher limits where you see the same players every day, you can personally gauge how loose, agressive, tight, etc a player is playing, then looking at their stats, compare it to newer player's numbers and from there, adjust your play accordingly. That's just one way that I use the same programs.. There are obviously plenty others. |

[/ QUOTE ] Instead of looking at preflop hand strengths, do it on different flops of hands that you have played. Then go back and analyze your play on the flop. |
