Default Where do you think Omaha action will go now (poll)?

Omaha action was obviously overly concentrated on the Party network until last night's implosion. Where do you think the action will go now?

I've also found PokerRoom and their skins have a good selection of PLO/8 games to choose from.

Pokerroom is a good site. Great software too. SH is 5-handed though, not 6. An adjustment to be made there.

Well, it looks pretty clear. Most people are on Party and there's a few more tables on Pokerstars than before.

when I first logged in yesterday, there was 1 .50/1 LO8, 2 $25 PLO8, and 1 1/2 6-max LO8 games going on the skins.

thats it. only those four tables.

rakeback is sorta key in split pot games, and mine just went poof.

I hope to God that a party rb is comming soon.


BTW,

I really wish that PS would get rid of the NLO8 games. its just plain out ridiculous that there can be 4 1/2 NLO8 and no plo8 games going over .25/.50.

NLO8 is atrocious.

It has nothing to do with the structure of the game; all that matters is your rakeback rate vs. your win rate.

That is true, and when I'm still learning much about the game, it is much higher than I'd like it to be.

I also play a great bit of 6-max LHE, and at SHLHE, the rake rate can be pretty damn high. Rakeback was not necessarily a must have, but it was nice to get part of those triple digits in BB's back at the end of the month.

From what I hear, the trick will be to get rakeback at Party. Will probably require 2nd-identity mesaures. But the fish aren't going anywhere--they'll all still be at party, not knowing that the shape of their bowl has changed.
