Re: $50 PLO8 hand
Yeah. Agreed. That is one of the many reasons I love PLO8 so much.
I personally wouldn't raise this hand unless it was passed to me in LP. In cash games that is something I employ, whereas I usually don't raise other hands. I'm definitely more of a post-flop PLO8 player than pre. Might be coming from my LO8 beginnings.
I had forgotten how much I love PLO8. In the past two months I've been out of the USA most of the time, taking cruises out of San Diego (down to Mexico).
I had time to get my head straight following chemo. I was trying to clear things up before playing real stakes poker again.
In some ways I succeeded, in others I failed. Definitely my abilities are not that of pre-chemo. I am now finally able to admit that. But they are coming back. I already feel more focused than I did just last week.
Okay, so I have hijacked this thread for my own purpose, lol. I meant to make a post on these two forums to update everyone, but I just never got around to it. I will try to do that today.
At any rate, I tried to get a PLO8 game going on the CardPlayer cruise, but no one would go for it, not even for tiny blinds like .50/1 (they had brown .50 chips). I guess they figured that if they busted, they didn't have access to more money, like a land-casino. Maybe they thought it I was suggesting the game, I must know how to play, lol.
Last night was my first foray back into PLO8 (online, of course). I'd utterly forgotten how much I enjoy the game.
And yes, I am a self-confessed nutpeddler [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
