Re: How to get into non-HE poker
Pick one you think might fit your personality. For example (and all of these come from my own personal preferences)
Stud is as complex as Hold'em but will frustrate you because you get sucked out on far more than in HE.
Stud/8 is perhaps the most straightforward poker game, but skilled players enjoy the biggest edge here than any other limit game.
Limit Oamaha 8 is the intellectual equivalent of watching paint dry.
PLO is a great game if you are analytical, read people well, and have a good deal of gamble and risk tolerance.
Personally, I try to play all forms at some time. You learn more about strategy by varying the games you play. Ultimately, you want to be able to sit in the game where you have the biggest edge. The more games you play well, the more often you can exercise good game selection.
