Default Re: SS 2 review (bad PLO section?)

Yeah, it's annoying that the PLO examples are more anecdotal than illustrative. I agree that these are legitimate faults of the chapter; however, part of the problem stems from the fact that PLO is just really freaking hard. The worst fault, I'd say, is the utter lack of comprehensiveness. No matter how tough a game is you'd think there'd be a fuller explanation of, say, the kinds of hands you can call raises with in LMP. (Though, hands run so close together preflop, and PLO isn't really about preflop play, except not being a moron and getting stuck for lots of money with dry aces out of position when there's still plenty of money to be bet, but I digress...) I'd also like to have seen more on how to play various hands on the turn; so many tricky situations arise, especially out of position.

I still say it's worth reading, but it's definitely lacking.
