Re: HE vs Omaha Hi winrate comparisons?
I've never played Omaha Hi limit. But I've played a fair amount of Omaha/8 limit, as well as pot-limit Omaha.
PLO compared to PLHE is a better win rate per hand, but about the same per hour for me. O/8 comes out a wee bit ahead of LHE for me per hour, and a fair bit ahead per hand.
Only my PLO vs PLHE comparison has a 95% chance of being correct. Played too few hands O/8 to be sure, but it seems reasonable that you can keep up a higher winrate as well as a lower variance compared to HE.
Unfortunately the table selection is limited at pretty low limits, and is non-existent at higher limits. Which is what keeps me from switching. I do mix games though.
Although there is nothing decent published on it, PLO/8 is an amazing game against weak opponents. Most fish probably stand a better chance against Doyle in NLHE than they do against me in PLO/8. The game is just sickly in favor of the better player.
