I actually think the games are far softer than the no limit tables that are infested with 12 tabling regs (certainly at SSNL and MSNL). pot limit is also a refreshing change of pace!

But I was talking about pot limit hold'em, not PLO. Anyway, I've gone back to no limit now, since there are way more fish. They seem happier playing no limit - so that's where the action is.

It really is the highest variance form of poker, with thin margins as pointed out earlier. As well, I find quite the contrary that action in PLO gets much wilder post flop. A 9max table becomes virtual slaughter house, unless one learns to tighten up as much as humanely possible and fasten his seat belts on favourable flops for an all in roller-coaster ride. Even 6max tables are often nuts with on average half the table jumping off the cliff with their varying strength draws, often with the made hand loosing in the process.

The strategy required to excel at PLO is so much different. You are pushing much smaller edges and the draws are everything. I found it hard adapting to flopping the nuts but still not being the favorite or just a small dog. Ive started to re-read Jeff Hwangs 1st book on PLO, because I think its the game of the future, when people become sick of nl hold'em.
