Rolf's CP Column and Starting Hand Requirements

[beset7]

I am in the middle of a prop bet with the rempel that I can play 30k hands of NLHE without playing any other games. I'm halfway thru and I'm dying to play some Omaha. But, really, the game selection is so much better at NLHE. Kind of sucks.

Though right before this prop bet started I played in some spectacular 1/2 and 2/4 6max games on party. I guess it's just a matter of luck (i.e. when preparation meets opportunity).

I just started playing NLHE after getting a nice bonus offer from one of the smaller sites where I used to play regularly. Compared to PLO, NLHE is ridiculously soft.

I've played nothing but limit HE for the past two weeks in preparation for a Vegas trip this weekend. I'm about to gnaw my arm off.

Yeah I'm 15k into the 30k hand prop bet and i'm going nutso. I just want to play PLO and 7 Stud H/L [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Damn you all. I learn PLO as Ive heard the games are real soft compared to NLHE and as soon as I get decent they dry up [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img].Although I do think you are referring to games higher than I play in.

Oh well, I think I'll always have a table or two running just as I do Stud8 or TD, just so I dont go insane with boredom from NLHE.

this kind of suprised me, but in fact 9876r is a negative equity hand
9876r vs random hands
2way: 45/55
30/35/35
~23/26 x 3
18/20.5 x 4
