I sat there and watched a game that was very different than the PLO that I play.

I thought Phil Ivey's game was quite similar to the way I play. I especialy liked the hand where he called the pot raise with QJxxds and bet out on the Jxx board. He correctly read the raise as AAxx, tried to make the aces hand lay down by representing JJxx, but then absolutely had the correct odds to call the all-in with his 11-outer. Phil Ivey rocks at PLO.
Another play I thought was great was Williamson making Ivey lay down his 2-pair aces/sixes by representing the nut straight on the turn with 99xx. vs. Ax76 board. He knows Ivey is a tight Omaha player, and even if he got called, he still had 4-outs. (sorry, I can't remember the xx cards right now.)
