I wanted to share a few experienices that I have encounter in the last week.My spelling may be a little skewed but just hold on.Anyway back to my encounter.I have been playing NLHE Cash games for 6 mths.I played NLHE Sit-and-gos and MTT for 3 yrs.I have made money but not as quick as I'm making money playing PL omaha hi/lo .Just recently I took the time to really work on my O8 game after playing for a year and 1/2 on and off and these past few weeks it has really taking off after reading an Article from Chip Jett which explains O8 is a game you want to play extremly tight because it can be really profitable.He says to only play cards with an A that suited or it can be unsuited during certain times ,for example play like As 2s 3c Kh.This way you have a protected nut low which means if an 2 comes up you still got the nut low with A3.Or if you gonna play high cards play something like 10s Jh Ks Ac .I followed and tried this method and boy did my game take off.I did really well these last few weeks playing .01/.02 PL O8 making 25/bb(big blinds) not Big Bets )every 30 hands .Some days it not alot .Some days I'm not catching the cards so I would take the day off.Then the next day cont and back on.
I have played NLHE cash games and get way ahead just to lose to a cooler or variance.I realized NLHE is not everybody game .There are people out there that excel more at another game like Nicky fangos who a great stud player but medicore NLHE although has made the final tables playing NLHE but sites stud as his game.Roy Winston another one he a Decent NLHE player won alot of money playing that but excels at PLO.I realized NLHE is not for me.However it the game where most people flock too the game where you will get the most action and the most fishes and money being played.
Back to PL Omaha Front .Like I said I have really devoted my playing for a few weeks playing .01/.02 PL Omaha Hi/lo .I made 60 dollars in three weeks.This is playing .01/.02 Pl O8 .I have never been able to make money like that playing NLHE . PL O8 is gonna be the game where I make my money from. If I was a betting man which we all are .I would take my chances playing O8 and winnning more money on that then I would NLHE .Truth be told I'm making more.If I would know what I learned from that article I would of won that Final Table at FT in Pl O8 back in 08.Instead of 7th which was light and day in payout from 1st and 7th.I'm making 25/bb not Big Blins not Big Bets.So I make .50c every thirty hands some might not believe however I don't care it what I made per every 30 hands but I only play maybe 5 hands out of that 30 but I play the right hands which becomes more profitable for me .I don't always win but more than likley I get half the pot worst case is I get quartered .The best case I scoop the pot.There are times where there is no low .A low will hit about 60-70 % of the time......So NLHE goodbye....... Hello PL O8

Hello PL O8
I read many biographs of Big poker guys, and many of them changed NLH to Omaha.
