Hey guys,

I've been playing mostly 6-max PLO for the last month or two and have the following bits of advice/observations.

1. The equity swings are nuts but if properly rolled you'll be able to make good dollars.

2. On most tables it's a matter of making the nuts and then extracting. Once you have the table image in place you can start to get extra money through small shots at the pot, usually from late position.

3. Because most PLO players come from a NL Holdem background they overvalue AAxx and KKxx. You can use this to your advantage.

4. Think about implied odds through the hand. If you're drawing to a flush against solid opponents, you aren't going to make any money if you hit. A gutshot draw against a 100BB fish could be a gold mine.

5. Flopping the nut straight is a complicated experience. Proceed with caution.

6. Beware the trappers. It can be fairly common to be check raised or check re-raised.

7. Draw only to the nuts, unless a good read allows you to get value with the second/third nut hand.

8. Get ready for some horrendous beats. Quads vs full houses, straight flush against nut flush etc...

9. Enjoy it, it's a cool game.

If you have trouble taking MANY bad beats in one session, PLO probably isn't a game for you.

PLO Pro-Strategy..

Hello

I am new to the forum and just got done
reading through the posts. First off, there
really is a great opporutnity to make a lot
of money for the simple fact that very few
players understand the game. I started playing
about a year ago after having played NL for years.
When I started, I realized the hardest part about
making the shift was the lack of resources. I then
was really fortunate to meet a PLO Pro that is a
consistent winner in some of the biggest games.
As a favor he coached me for several months and
I saw dramatic improvement in my game.
So Heres What I've Got For You

I summarized everything he taught me into One
easy to use document. After seeing some of the
posts here, and recalling my struggles in PLO, I want
to offer this summary of my personal coaching sessions
to anyone that wants to take advantage of this game changing
info.Just contact me here on the forum with a private message
and your email. so I can get it to you.

Talk Soon
