Phil Galfond and Jungleman12 are up there IMO.

Sam F. and Freddy D. Two of the best characters.

Skjevoy is probably my pick for PLO at this time but it changes so often that it is hard to say.

Jungleman12 isn't that good of a PLO player, his NLHE game is much much stronger according to him. That's why he chose NLHE over PLO for the Durrrr challenge.

Skjervoy and Sam Farha are both top notch PLO players IMO.

Robert Willamson the 3rd is a frequent winner in the wsop games.

It also depends on what kind of games your talking about. MTT online or cash games online? Or big buy in MTT's like the WSOP.

Durr is a great cash game player. But he hasn't done anything in the live MTT ranks except a fews 2nds-4ths

Given his nickname "Mr. Omaha", I can't believe we forgot about him!

He has won a WSOP bracelet in a PLO event, and has had several other notable performances in other PLO events.

I'm also quite sure he final tabled at least one of the PLO FTOPS events.

The names that have been called out in this thread makes me think that people believe too much of what they hear on TV and also that people in this thread do not have a clue how to play omaha and what is actually good.

I've been practicing winning my coin tosses. I think I won 4 in a row once. Once I start winning 5 in a row I'm taking a shot at the nosebleeds.

#14 15th December 2010, 12:09 AM

Robert Willamson and ziggy

#15 16th December 2010, 6:51 PM

A few good ones named but it depends a lot on what type of cash game or if its tournament PLO. Many good players not mentioned as well.

Read "Farha On Omaha" and I can honestly say if I played like
he advises I'd be broke in no time and I can do that quite easily
myself

So I dont know who the best Omaha player is, but sadly I
probably know who is the worst, me, but I still enjoy it

#25 17th December 2010, 9:25 PM

No doubt Omaha is definitely fun.

I'd swap out Sammy Farha for Ilari "Zigmund" Sahamies.

Sweet thread, always from people who have under 65post count.
But lets say..
Antonius, Durr, Ivey and Sahamies(depends is he drunk)

#28 18th December 2010, 12:03 AM

I think That

Phil Ivey is the best
