PLO at sites other than party and pokerstars
 

specifically prima, absolute, ultimatebet

if you know of any other sites with lots of low level tables, feel free to list them

i'm not looking for a review of the strength of the games, i'm just looking for a good site to sign up with. i'd dl the clients and check myself, but i want to sign up with rakeback and don't want to waste the time signing up and finding out there's no games

I am in the UK so some games might run when I'm not about but.

Absolute - Don't bother

UB - Usually a 25/50 running. Sometimes a $100 and $200

Prima - Normally some shorthanded games running upto $400

Full Tilt - Normally has a $50 and $100 full game going

Crypto - Normally slightly higher limits running $200 and up.

Ladbrokes has lots of PLO games running if you are not from the States.

You can check Paradise.
They usually have many 50games and 400games. Sometimes something in between is going too. (In my Paradise days there raraly was a game at 100 or 200 level but now Paradise have more players and they're trying to attract plo players so I think you can give it a try).

Re: PLO at sites other than party and pokerstars
 

UB usually will have a few 25 and 50 tables, 1 or 2 100 tables and spotty for higher.
Bodog usually has about 2 or 3 at 25 or 50, 3 100 tables and 1 or 2 at higher limits.
Interpoker: about a year ago had a fair number at all levels but during the last 6 months the number of tables has declined significantly.

Re: PLO at sites other than party and pokerstars
 

How are the mid stakes UB games? I am thinking about going after their bonus but not if the action is much rockier than Party, Stars or PR.

Re: PLO at sites other than party and pokerstars
 

IMHO the games on UB have dried up, havent even played there for a while. I am doing my fishing elsewhere now [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

It seems prima has a lot of euro players, I dont get why they never have running PLO games. This of course coming from the assumption that euros like PLO.

Re: PLO at sites other than party and pokerstars
 

Prima has had a little surge in games recently with a 3/6 usually going around and the 40/80 PL game has been up almost every day this week. Right now even has a 10/20 which isn't usually up.

6 handed are usually around those shorter stakes (2/4-.5/1) consistently. Most tables are 6 handed.

Re: PLO at sites other than party and pokerstars
 

The 25 & 50 tables at UB are pretty good. Straight forward play with your big hands will make alot of money as people draw to longshots way too much. The 100 games seem to be tougher, but i haven't been playing them long enough to judge.

why can't americans play there? and is there anyway around this?

and how many games on average are running? right now i only see 3000 players 300 tables

Re: PLO at sites other than party and pokerstars
 

The reason that Ladbrokes doesn't let americans play is that they fear Justice Department action against one of their susidiaries that does business in the US if they were to allow US customers. The also do not allow German customers. They enforce this by IP geo-location software. Even if you were able to get around that, you would still have to have a maildrop like in Canada.

that sucks [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]
i'd just love to see a site where all the random donks play PLO instead of NLHE. maybe in 10 years the next US poker revival will feature PLO

Re: PLO at sites other than party and pokerstars
 

If you look on another euro site like 24h, you will actually find that more people are playing nlhe than plo.

Of course the funny thing to this, is american plo players think euros can't play a lick and want to play with them, while euros think the same about americans.
