Finally, Wsop Plo8 2007


Recommended Posts

http://www.worldseriesofpoker.com/news/ful...CategoryID=1514June 25, 2007 Monday 5 PM 42 Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-low Split-8 or Better (2 day event) $ 1,500.00 But with 1500 starting chips I think this is like an online $10 plo8 flipament donk fest. Hopefully this will be a success so next year they will add a 5k tournament.
well last years Omaha Hi-Lo $2000 was and felt like an online Donk fest , so I can only imagine what it will be like for $500 less. What really surprised me about last year was that after I was knocked out of the event I sat down at a $20 - $40 Hi-Lo game. I thought I was playing .50 - $1 online the caliber and knowledge of the players left a lot to be desired, it was also 1/2 kill so it was really amazing when you would get a player open raise with a Kill pot holding 6789 rainbow and get 6 callers at a 9 man table. Hopefully this year will be a lotbetter. The sad part was the 6789 riverd trip 6s to take down a massive pot with out a Lo.

I am willing to buy some action, anywhere up to 50% (I cover x% of the buy-in and receive x% of any profits -- I believe that's the standard method), but it depends on who. PM if interested. I'm that confident in this forum's PLO8 skills. =)Aseem

I am thinking of playin the PLO/8 then the followin LO/8 two days later this year. I played my first live LO/8 in Tulsa, OK and it was not a fun experience. We were literally getting 1 round per 30 min level. The people who had no clue how to play the event at my table ended up with most of the chips.

What I almost exclusively play is 400 and 600. On Stars, the 400 is decently soft while the 600 basically depends on if a decent fish is sitting (otherwise it tends to not be that great). On Full Tilt, the 400 is quite soft while the 600 generally only runs short and game selection is important (i.e. don't sit if just a couple of sharks are sitting). I also once sat down at a Full Tilt 200 and it was ridiculous(ly soft), but I almost never play 200 anymore so I'm not sure if that was normal or not.Aseem

No problem. Just PLO8, although five times counting now, something like this has happened...Aseem opens up a few sites to see if there are any good PLO8 games going.Okay, just the usual couple 400 tables, a shark sitting by himself at a 600 table (no thanks), okay, okay...HOLY BATMAN a full ring 1000 table!!!! aoiusdoahdsaohdahdiadaAnd I only see like two sharks, the rest are unknowns!!!!Immediately buy in full, fold a couple of hands as I read 2+2 (BBV), check email, play other tables, etc.Then I get A-2-6-8 and open somewhere in MP and get a few callers.Flop is 7-5-3 rainbow, I pot and get checkraised, INSTA-PUSH, I'm up against 9-8-6-4, LOL!!!Turn 4, SHIP IT.River 8, oh well at least I get half.WAIT WHAT!! WHY IS IT TELLING ME I NEED TO RELOAD IN ORDER TO CONTINUE PLAYING?!**** THIS IS ****ING PLO NOT PLO8. HYACHACHAHCHAHCHAHCHAI hope this does not happen anymore.Aseem

Unfortunately, the lesson is only learned for a few weeks. Inevitably this damn cycle repeats itself every month or so, and it has varied between just a small $50-$100 pot to a full $1000 buy-in to a medium $400 pot or so.****ing Bodog software. I hate it. I really want to email support and ask them if they can block me from sitting at any PLO table above $200.I think the total damage has been ~$1500, so not terrible, and this is over 6 months or so.Aseem

Seems American evenings+nights are best, but there are usually games going at most reasonable times.Aseem

yeah, bodog is pretty bad about refreshin the lobby sometimes. I would click the hi lo lobby and sit down at a table thinking its a hi lo game and end up having to reload because it hi only.Screen name on bodog?

Sorry, I don't reveal my FT and Bodog screennames. I don't play on Bodog that much, though, because the software is a huge pain in the *** and it kills my computer sometimes too. And it randomly crashes and that's sooo ridiculous if I'm in big hands. So mainly just Stars and Tilt for me.Aseem

Bodog's random crashes annoys me also but I live with it. I try to stay out of the 1k PLO games on bodog, but sometimes the games are so wild that I have to sit in.
