1) Due to the split pot nature, you need less of a bankroll to play O8 than limit holdem. 25xbb is usually more than enough.

3) Having the nuts on the flop is worthless

Woa, I strongly disagree with both statements

The game has much higher variance than limit holdem. At low stakes your bankroll will fluctuate WAY more than in limit holdem.

having the nuts is never worthless, you may not be a favorite to the field but you're ahead of any other given person (assuming your the only one with the nuts)

Your statements are contradictory, how can you say "having the nuts on the flop is worthless" and then say the game has lower variance than holdem!? the Short term bad beats are almost constant in O/8 limit, as you said-sometimes it'll seem as though you're constantly getting outdrawn when flopping the nuts but other times you're always hitting and holding up
