Whoa. total 360 on my plans for poker this month. This could change again in an instant, but I decided to pick up PLO and give the 6max version a try.
I've played about 1200 hands so far to pretty satisfying results. I'm obviously running hot, but at PLO50, which is the limit I'm playing, the players are very straight forward for the most part and its pretty easy to be profitable.
I'm not ready yet to make any real observations about the game or some of the things I think about it... but for the most part being aggressive preflop by open raising a lot... especially from the steal positions, is really profitable.
It's a lot of winning small pots and then waiting for someone willing to over play their overpair. Having a decent rundown hand is so awesome in this spots. For example, If i raise T976 with a suit on the button and the BB 3bets, his most likely hand is AAxx, which is pretty much what most people 3bet with... its interesting to watch what people 3bet with... but anyways, the flop comes anything that connects with my hand J96, T85, or any combo of these middling type flops, some players will just stick their money in the middle as a pretty significant dog.
Main event starts tomorrow - let the mayhem begin.
