Not really sure why, but this week's Friday variety game really put me in the mood for some PLO8 so I've been playing a few SnGs. Interested in people's thoughts on this one:
Reads - wirenutt has been playing pretty solid. Ganesh, on the other hand, has been playing awful and getting lucky. He'll do things like jam pots with trips and no low when there's potential flushes, boats and lows out there.
Preflop and flop I'm pretty happy with - I figure there's an OESD on the flop but there needs to be runner-runner for a low to come up and I'm likely good here. I'd be happy to take the pot down on the flop.
The 2c on the turn is kinda ugly though - it keeps lows possible and puts a flush draw out there. Pot size is 1680, I've got just over that behind. Ganesh has about 1500 and wirenutt obv has us both covered.
Do we slow down, or jam knowing that they must still be drawing? Other thoughts?
