pipes, what is the advantage to 6 max O8 play? I play alot of 6 max holdem and like being very aggresive in my betting patterns. But the few times I tried short O8 I didn't know how to apply my holdem aggressiveness to the O8 game.

I tend to be very tight preflop and didn't like adding more hands preflop. Also didn't push nonnut holdings postflop.

I usually play the 100 PLO8 at party and sometimes the 3/6 but like the PL better.

Ohh, I don't like playing 6 max Omaha8b. (Although I have a feeling that a specialist in these games probably earns a larger BB than full ring) O8b is a different game than hold'em. Being aggressive and taking the lead, does not seem to work as well in O8b as it does in SH Hold'em. No hand is usually a great favorite over another and a weak opponent will usually cling to a weak low or high. I find it hard to scoop large pots which is where I make alot of money in full games.

I think the SH games simply help the bad players by making their loose calls more correct.

This is just my experience/opinion. I just prefer a full game.
