I'm just starting out and was wondering what game I could hope to make money at easiest playing super low stakes against super bad fish?

Limit O8 is probably the easiest thing to learn/play if you understand how split games work.

When you say hi do you mean limit hi or PLO?

If you play limit holdem, I'd suggest O8, but if you play PL/NL I'd probably suggest PLO, I've come to hate O8 but it's a pretty easy game to learn and can be some fun, and the players are awful.

I'd strongly recommend staying away from limit omaha hi. Game is painful.

Ribbo, I think that you have established yourself as one of the most useless posters on this board. 90% of your posts are five words or less, most either berate the OP or add NOTHING of value to the discussion.

Welcome to my ignore list.

Easiest to learn limit O8
Next PLO
Hardest PLO8

I don't know which game attracts the worst players. This will be relative, as you are new to the game yourself.

Limit O8 might be a good place to start, as limit is more forgiving to new players.

If I can find a picture of me about the house I will scan it and post it for you. But that baby doesn't even look close enough to being a nerd.

I'd definitely say omaha hi (limit preferably) the mechanics in terms of using two cards and trying to make nut hands is somewhat comparable to hold'em. In 8OB, the low always confuses new players and even if they understand what is the nut low they get confused very easily on what is truly a good low. My suggestion would be omaha limit high and if you like it work from there.

I'm not an active 2+2'er, but what I've read today have probably improved my omahaskills, and you have contributed to that with your posts.

Keep up the good work!

My point exactly. Of your three comments in this thread, all three fit squarely into my initial observations.

Truth hurts.
