Default Weekly PLO Game? Any Interest?

So on the beginners forum Basementproject started this post about having a weekly game involving 2+2ers where we could play for very micro stakes and learn from one another. The problem is that the majority of the players will end up being NLH, and although I said I would participate, I am disappointed that no real PLO players will be joining this weekly game. I was wondering how much interest there is amongst you all in having a micro game where it isn't really about making money off each other but a good time to see how each other plays and give advice to one another. I am really hoping some of the great PLO players here would be interested in helping us lowly microstakes players lol. If this sounds interesting to you, let me know.

See the reference thread below:

sunday night would be ok for something like this and its always going to be time dependant - the only issue i can see with a micro stakes game is there is going to be a huge amount of gambling going on due to alot of people being over rolled [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] perhaps for this reason a MTT might be better?

2+2 cash games tend to quickly degenerate into aggro fests and little is learned. A tourney definitely is better, though you'd be learning something different than what you intended in the first place.

My 2 cents is that I think PLO MTTs are only fun if they're rebuy so the tables are deep. Also, if europeans like me are going to play night time no can do

FYP. Omaha is NOT a tournament game.

A tourney definitely is better as a learning experience (meaning you might actually learn something) than a micro cash game with a bunch of overrolled aggro monkeys. Perhaps that wasn't made clear.

As for Omaha as a tournament game, well, I'm not going to disagree.

You could solve the microstakes problem by having people crossbook action but that would probably just results in people trying to hurt each other. I know I would at least.

If ppl are going to consider an MTT you probably want a 25 or 50 dollar buyin and either 3000 or 4000 chips to start.
