Nutcracker 0 Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 I'm starting at .01/.02 PLO8 and working my way up, learning as I go, and had a few questions about stats.First of all, what kind of VP$IP is desireable. I'm sure it's higher at microlimits since the players are so completely terrible, but once i get to like .5/1, what should I be around? Currently I'm at like 35%, which I assume is too high.Second, what kind of bb/100 is considered doing well? I'm sure at the microlimits, it's like 50bb/100 since the players are so bad, but once I move up, what kind of bb/100 would indicate doing well?Thirdly, what are the bankroll requirements for PLO8? I want to move up quickly, but I don't want to go broke because of variance.Finally, what are the best sites for fishy play at PLO8 at the .10/.25 and up levels? Link to post Share on other sites

First of all, what kind of VP$IP is desireable. I'm sure it's higher at microlimits since the players are so completely terrible, but once i get to like .5/1, what should I be around? Currently I'm at like 35%, which I assume is too high.2. Second, what kind of bb/100 is considered doing well? I'm sure at the microlimits, it's like 50bb/100 since the players are so bad, but once I move up, what kind of bb/100 would indicate doing well?3. Thirdly, what are the bankroll requirements for PLO8? I want to move up quickly, but I don't want to go broke because of variance.4. Finally, what are the best sites for fishy play at PLO8 at the .10/.25 and up levels?1. Varies, in general you want it below 20. 2. I've seen it from 13 to 17 bb/100.3. I would say 250BB would be more than enough and I have never gone broke with that.4. PokerStars. Link to post Share on other sites
Nutcracker 0 Posted October 3, 2005 Author Share Posted October 3, 2005 I would say 250BB would be more than enough and I have never gone broke with that.This is PLO8, not limit O8.. Unless you meant 250bb, which seems ridiculously low. Link to post Share on other sites

Unless you meant 250bb, which seems ridiculously low.250 big blinds and that's what I meant. In fact you should never lose more than 200 big blinds, 250 is generous. Link to post Share on other sites
Nutcracker 0 Posted October 3, 2005 Author Share Posted October 3, 2005 No kidding? Never lose more than 2 buyins? I know PLO8 has quite low variance, but hot damn.. I might be a bit more conservative than that, as I have lost an entire buyin a couple times already.Thanks for the info. Link to post Share on other sites
