Default Chicago Pot Limit Omaha

Saw the PLO game at Harrah's East Chicago the other night. Looked soft, the kind of game that makes you wish you knew how to play Omaha...

Anybody ever play it? Looked like mostly well-heeled retirees, along with a few sharpish players.

And most bought in for substantially more (about 5-7x). Game ran all night, according to Kleinstadt, who had an overnight $10-20 session.

If these players have similar skill level to the $20-40 boys there, I'll be hitting Bob Ciaffone up for PLO lessons once my BR is high enough.

i believe 2/5 (in answer to question about blinds at harrahs plo)

i was at trumps last night and noticed they had a signup for a 10/20 hose game this weekend - that piqued my curiousity as i've never seen harrah's spread hose at lower than 30/60

Last time I was at Trump, they had an interest list for a $3-6 1/2 HE 1/2 O8 game - I signed up #3 - when I left, there were 4 names on the list (hours later).

This game ever go?

It's a crazy game. I have never sat in it, but have watched it while playing 10-20. Insane action. Not sure if the players any good, but the action is nuts [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I know a couple good players who have sat in that game in the past. They wouldn't be in the game if is wasn't soft.

Regards,
