I am seeing 80-85% of the flops.


Is this too many?


I ehard DN once say that you should see 80% of the flops in PLO, I am wondering if others have found this to be true?

Honestly, i think it really depends on the style of the game.

If every pot is getting raised and/or 3bet with regularity, I'd probably be seeing like 15-30%...or like 30-40% if a 6-max.

If the game is a nice passive loose game, 60-80% is definitely within reason. Id also put it on the quality of opponents. At the low levels, you can almost see a players cards when they are holding AAxx and crush a guy when he overvalues it and you get easy money for flopping a random 2 pair.

I think 'seeing 80-85% of flops' as a general statement is probably not standard....but is fine in micro limits because players are so easy to dominate post flop.

You're probably playing a bit too loose, but it is table-dependent.

I can't imagine that if DN is playing against anybody competent at his regular stakes, that seeing 80% of flops is a winning way.

He was referrring to tournament play, and he said Phil Ivey is the one who taught him this.

I am trying it out in low level plo cash and finding it fun but not sure if it is profitable, although I am getting paid off more being in so many pots.

I had originally wanted to post a 4 way all in pre-flop pot in $.02/$.05 plo that ended up being >$25 and the 4 hands that felt they were strong enough to get all their money in, aa23 ds was the 'best' K1043 ss was the worst. But I didn't enter it right into flopturmriver, anded up losing the data and didn't feel like requesting a hh just for one hand of craziness.

I take their moneys, obv

in low limit this seems ok. I like to see a lot of flops in omaha. I just don't see a lot of turns or rivers.
