Default PLO/8 at Wynn or 40 HORSE at Venetian?

Last night the Wynn started a 5/5 PLO/8 game. When we sat down, we agreed to a mixed game of 5/5 PLO and 5/5 PLO/8. Someone else at the table mentioned that it (PLO/8) doesn't run very often. How likely is it that it will run again tonight? I'm trying to decide between that and the 40 HORSE at Venetian

Actually, now that I think about it, I think the HORSE game at the Venetian is 5/10 or 10/20. Doesn't matter; I'll still play it

I've never seen PLO/8 run in Vegas. Never. Not once.

PLO runs once a month at the Wynn, usually 5/10 uncapped (though I saw 1/3 uncapped once). They more typically run LO8 10-20 half-kill or the mixed game.

According to my records, Caesars ran a 1/2 PLO8 game on April 7th. There was confusion even amongst the dealers as to whether the game was PLO or PLO8, but I'm pretty sure it was settled on PLO8.

Yes, several players were very surprised that it got started. When I arrived in the room, the interest list for the PLO/8 game was 10-deep. I was shocked when they actually called it. Then shockeder when it got off.

Wow. That's pretty crazy! I've never played there, so that makes sense, I suppose. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I'll check it out sometime.

WOW I like your ideas. I wish that game was available in my local casino. PLO and PLO8 mix, wow just wow. What are the odds such a game gets started again? I am going to vegas in July, can I even suggest such a game or would I be asking for too much since I am not a regular? How should I ask anyway?

just ask to start an interest list. I know ~5 ppl that will play plo and 3-4 that'd play plo8, an we'd start short.

bugstud,

Does the game have to be big for people to play? If I asked for an interest list I would say something like, 2-4 PLO/PLO8 mixed game. Not big enough?
