Default Re: Biggest differences between PLO8 and Limit?

Most people at most levels won’t fold decent hands in Limit, but they have to in PLO8 because you can put more pressure on them.

... if they're good. Bad PLO8 players will call with hands they "should" fold, given that calls will lose them money in the long run. Bluffing these players can be a substantial leak.

My first laugh of the day. I really was LOL.

Reminds me of when Jesse May was asked the difference between something like 2/4 and 200/400, and he said, "In 200/400, you play with the green and black chips."

When pressed, he went on to explain again and again the difference in chip denominations.

Yanno you are getting jaded when a book like Shut Up and Deal starts becoming more and more like real life, and comic relief, rather than an exciting novel. [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

I remember when Rounders came out, and my Mom watched it, then shuddered and said she hated it, it was too much like real poker. Obviously not the over-the-top scenes, but the lifestyle. She'd seen too much of it dealing for ten years.
