So is anyone new to PLO, would you like to get better? Tired of playing 10plo but want to move up higher. Here's your chance to improve! Just send me a session either the text file or a video if you like and I'll analyse your play!. If its a text file, please no more than like 100 hands.

Also, lets get some PLO discussion going again.

I am not yet allowed to play the cardschat tournaments but why not try and get a cardschat PLO game...even if ( probably better if it isn't ) not financially sponsered by cardschat why not a tourney made up of CC PLO players??? I know this is probably just a dumb newbie idea but hey its mine...

Edit: reason being is after it was over hands could be disected by PLO guru and so not only fun but learning experience...

Also lets use this as Hand Discussion thread as well.

First, what you guys think of this. Like I just want you guys to look at the percentages at the bottom for both flop and turn :)


Grabbed by Holdem Manager
PL Omaha $0.50(BB) Replayer
SB ($79.17)
BB ($92.70)
Hero ($125)
UTG+1 ($168)
CO ($71.65)
BTN ($125)

CO antes $0.10
BTN antes $0.10
SB antes $0.10
BB antes $0.10
Hero antes $0.10
UTG+1 antes $0.10

Dealt to Hero 7:diamond: 5:spade: K:diamond: 6:club:

Hero raises to $2, fold, CO calls $2, BTN calls $2, SB calls $1.75, BB calls $1.50

FLOP ($10.60) 5:heart: 9:spade: 8:spade:

SB checks, BB bets $3, Hero raises to $17, CO folds, BTN calls $17, SB folds, BB folds

TURN ($47.60) 5:heart: 9:spade: 8:spade: K:club:

Hero bets $45.46, BTN raises to $105 (AI), Hero calls $60.44 (AI)

RIVER ($259) 5:heart: 9:spade: 8:spade: K:club: 4:club:

BTN shows J:heart: A:spade: Q:spade: T:heart:
(Pre 60%, Flop 67.7%, Turn 40.0%)

Hero shows 7:diamond: 5:spade: K:diamond: 6:club:
(Pre 40%, Flop 32.3%, Turn 60.0%)

Hero wins $256

Looking at the hand and looking over the percenages kind f makes sense when you have time to analyse but in real play if you were multiplaying then difficult to assess.
One thing I have learned is when there is a flush draw and you have the nut straight the flush draw kills your equity against ranges.
IMO Hero overplayed hand on flop as they could have been easily freerolled and button should have re-reraised.

the K on the turn really helps out the straight I would have played the same but would be nervous of the river catching the nut flush or higher straight and even a fh if he had a pp.
As for the percentages I would of believed my chances where a bit lower on the turn.

Secondly its not overplayed since most players are getting it in with sets here and just dry nut flush draws. Yea occassionally someone will be freerolling me but its not going to be as often as you think. Plus the hand is super easy to get away from. Villain just showed up with the absolute nut draw possible. I mean calling isnt bad but I rather play high variance than passive here. I want to get money from sets etc and its harder to do that on later streets.

the K just adds only 3 outs to villain.

i mean this is probably hard to say because in PLO there are many different styles that work. But firstly your playing a lot of hands, now if you show me positional stats and show that its mainly in position that is fine but your not raising enough preflop, I know its tempting to just limp and see flops but you want to be a lot more aggressive in position and raising a lot instead of limping. Rather be slightly tighter and more aggressive.

Also your 3 bet is just way too low, it basically means you only 3 bet AAxx type hands.

Also hard to say again but WTSD is pretty stardard, statistically you wanna be around that 30% mark but again, dont go looking to make it happen. just analyse it afterwards to know why it is that high/ low etc.

Dealt to Hero 7 5 K 6

Hero raises to $2, fold, CO calls $2, BTN calls $2, SB calls $1.75, BB calls $1.50

FLOP ($10.60) 5 9 8

SB checks, BB bets $3, Hero raises to $17, CO folds, BTN bets Pot, SB folds, BB folds
So if the Button Pot Bets the FLop when you Raise to $17 do you fold or call and reevaluate on the turn.

Sorry dont know what the pot bet would be on FLop by Button?

Pot bet would be 45 more. Call and get it in on a blank turn is the most profitable play. If board pairs/ FD hit its an easy fold.


I mean he also shows up with the absolute top of a range here and the fact that he didnt 3 bet preflop is another reason we cant exactly put him on that hand.

[QUOTE. the K just adds only 3 outs to villain.[/QUOTE]

I meant it gives Us a couple more outs for a fh.
I'm pretty much new at Omaha but why do fish get so excited when they get AAxx?, and go all in with a wet flop like 5h6h8h then call you a donk for beating they're pair of aces with a straight, flush or trips.
