I played for a couple of hours in a 1-2 uncapped game at Binions the other day and the action was sick. proper utg straddle most hands, most people over $1000 deep and had no clue what they were doing. $1500+ pots very common. don't know if it's a regular thing or not, but it was such a good game I imagine it would be higher-e.v. than the 2-5 at the Rio (at least the ones I've played).

does binions actually spread plo regularly or was this a wsop thing?

heading out wed night to sign up for the 1500$ plo on thurs, looking for something juicy for wed night. and probably thurs if things go bad.

Just from your tone it sounds like you're not being aggressive enough. Just say the word "pot" randomly from hand to hand!

You're right, I'm definitely not. Since the stakes are above my head I am trying to make my hand before I bet it, unlike how I often play online...

I still think I'd have been screwed either way yesterday though, since I never hit any draws. Can't think of any situations where potting it on the come would have knocked everyone out either. Guess I'll never know though.

BTW Kutuz, was that you in the #1 seat? It was either you or the guy who replaced you yesterday, I couldn't quite remember.

It was probably the other guy. He is not from 2+2. He says he finished 21st in Raymer's WSOP (he looked familiar), and that it was his first week playing PLO, and it was his new favorite game. I thought he played pretty well, aside from beating my QQ with his AQJT on AQx board for $500 [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] .

I'm now back home (going back to LV for the Main Event in 3 weeks, yippee more live PLO). That last night I tried to get on the 2-5 and 5-10 lists around 12:30am, but neither was moving, so I decided to just gamble away my last cash (I allocated $1800) at 25-25 instead. It turned out to also have a $50 rock, so it was a rare pot that had less than $600 in it preflop. About 3 hands in I had QQ and flop came QTT. I let a guy catch a smaller FH and was up to $3500. The play was loose and pretty wild. There was a dude who refused to let go of his top pairs with multiple overkickers (you know, suspecting the others of having top 2, etc), something which I have never seen online. All hands I showed were the nuts or close to it, so I got away with a few bluffs here and there. There was an interesting hand where I had KdQhJh4d, about $350 in the pot preflop, flop came AhTd3h, a bet of $250 to me, I make it 1K to go, get called. Small diamond turns, the guy pushes for about $1200 more, and I call with the inside wrap and two 2nd-nut flush draws. We ran it twice and I lost both, as he had AdQd or something [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] I originally planned to leave around 2:30am, but ended up staying until 4am, when it became shorthanded and I left up 2K or so. Had a blast playing.

Why was gank slumming at 2-5PLO one of the nights? I thought he played higher.

PS. Thanks to the "POTPOTPOT" poster for blowing up the thread.

I'll try to get a game started tomorrow. I don't think there will be any problem, because the PLO event is Wednesday. Plus Binion's is having a "summer special" on Omaha. 5% rake up to $2 max. Also $2/hr. for playing and $29 room rates.

I was there last night playing drunken PLOE with a bunch of 2+2ers, and they said the PLO goes almost every night.
