short handed plo

[Steppin Razor 0]

Anybody know any good books, articles, strategies, etc. on short handed PLO?PLO is not my best game, but playing me short handed is like armed robbery. I can't give my money away fast enough. I've avoided playing SH when possible, but sometimes with players coming and going I end up playing a little.My biggest problem is that I try to be more aggressive, and sometimes think that with less players the nuts (or nut draw) isn't always out there. I can't seem to 'aggression' someone out of a pot, and I often run into the nuts I figured was unlikely to be out there.Any advice is appreciated.

Yeah, I am awful at it. I guess that begs the question, who wins shorthanded PLO?

someone does.... You got to know when to hold em, know when to fold em. Kenny Roger's is all you need to know to learn this.But, basically it is similar to Hold'em, but more careful. Selected aggression with even more emphasis on position. Hop into a high limit, short handed game and watch. Say 3-5 people. More often than not the button raises and wins. Take advantage of this when you are in position.

SH can be alot more profitable than full ring. As with Hold'em, you definately need to raise your aggression level. Some small things, the values of king and queen high flushes go up, as does 2 pair and smaller sets. The nuts will still be out there, just not as much, you have to pay attention to how your opponents are playing, because alot of the profit will be from people playing far too tight (as if they were playing 10 handed) and still nut peddling. You want to push these players off hands when you can, but when they play back at you make sure you have a real hand to fall back on
