I played in a $20 heads up 4-player PLO tournament on Stars. I won my match in about 22 minutes. Then I waited for the other match to complete. It took 52 minutes. These guys were sitting there with almost even chips for the first 25 minutes. As big as PLO plays, how do you take 52 minutes?

I knew at this point I had the tournament in hand, because I would be playing a weak/tight opponent. It was in fact a very easy final round.

I find the PLO tourneys on stars to be quite profitable. There are 2 types of players...

1) Nut peddlers who are far too weak-tight especially shorthanded (although they probably win that way in low limit cash games).
2) Maniacs who think they are playing Hold 'em and their TPTK is actually good.
