PLO

Sorry I havent been making a lot of blog updates lately, Ive been really busy with poker and videos and life in general. Ill try and stay more on top of things.

February was an awesome month for me. I got pretty consistent action throughout and I was really happy with how I played. Ive also started to dabble in Pot Limit Omaha with mixed results. So far Ive been a small winner when playing HU PLO (I think a lot of NLHE HU strategy carries over) and a moderate loser at shorthanded games. My initial impressions of the game are as follows:

1. A lot of the higher-level thinking processes carry over from Hold em (duh)
2. PLO affords a mentally stable individual more opportunities to take advantage of tilty opponents due to its inherent higher swings/variance
3. An expert HU PLO player could expect to have a larger edge than an expert HU HE player since there are more spots to apply pressure and put your opponent to decisions

My resolution for march is to put in at least 10k hands of plo. It will be interesting for me to see how my impressions of the game change as I get more hands under my belt and whether these initial conjectures hold true.
