PLO Late Night [Coaching]

NOOOOOOOOOOOO I'm on holidays that day

Great news, i am in

Suberb!

Only bad thing that this is one-time session, hopefully there will be lots more omaha coaching in future Thursdays as well

Can you make it every thursday? there is no plo coaching in scheldue

This is one time thing, for now. If community likes it, of course we have the possibility to do it again.

Feel free to post any topics or questions. As there is no weekly PLO coaching atm, we can talk about that on Thursday too.

Ok so i will have a few questions And i Am warning you english is my second language so i hope you understands what I would like to ask:-P

First question (its more like a topic which i would like to discuss than one question) is related to evolving plo in term of games getting more tought.
I was nlhe player and i played up to nl 0.5/1$ than took opportunity with a business, had 2 yrs break of poker. Now i have more free time and i starded griding plo from micro.

I did that because i read from some top pros that nowadays ratio of players who are able to climb from plo 25 to plo 1k is much higher than in nlhe. In nlhe it is almost impossible. That is why plo seems to me more ev+ than nlhe.

However with time passing, every game gets toughter (people educate themself, more videos, articles etc.) even in plo.

And recently some experienced players from nlhe and flhe started moving to plo for bigger winnings.

So i am wondering what do guyes you think about it? how long plo will be seemd as an not sou tought game like nlhe?
Did you notice decent increace in level of regs on particular limits from plo 50 to plo 400? In your opinion how long it will be possible for decent regs to sustain 10bb at mid stakes?

Feel free expand this topic, i hope i was clear enought to be understood

Very good topic! Thanks!

Thanks for appreciation

Second topic which i would like to discuss is about mtt omaha. I tried to do some research in the Internet however i found not much information.
Most people in nlhe specialize either in mtt or cash games (i am talking about online right now). It's difficult to be decent mtt reg and cash game reg in the same time.

I am wondering how it is in omaha. I think that omaha has less tournaments and it is harder to play only them so i am gussing more people do mix tournaments with cash games. Does being succesful reg both at tournaments and cash games is easier than the same in nlhe?
What is achievable roi for decent reg in omaha tournaments at different mtt stakes?
It is said that in nlhe mtt are the sofest games. Is this statment true in omaha?
In nlhe mtt have also the biggest variance and swings, i would guess that in omaha it also has the biggest variance, how about variance in omaha mtt?

The last part of the subject i would like to dedicate to real life omaha tournaments. Not much is going around (some wsops in USA) but in Europe it is hard to find tournaments (mainly side events with 250e bi). I think that you can't be live pro omaha mtt, do you agree?

P.S I dont know how many questions/topics am i allowed to ask

You can post and ask as much as you want. We will then pick what we can in the given time limit.

I am very exited forward to this.
It smeems as if it needs some more publicity.

I have so much ideas in mind. But I did not put them into questions yet.

For instance 'How did you handle distractions from becoming a better poker player?"

Greetings

I'd like to know how to plan the days when learning plo. How did your days looked like, now and then? Proportions of playing, session reviews, videos and more?

for this coaching!

He guys,

what always interests me - how do you approximate Ranges in PLO?
In NL you can always say "yeah, he continues all TP+, any draw, any ace high" - but what do you do in PLO to approximate your opponents continuation range let's say to a flop cbet? It is pretty easy to discount 3x16 combos for overcard combinations, 3x6 for underpairs - removing 20% of a range. Obviously that does not work in PLO.

(will check the answer in the podcast)

I would like to hear in depth insight about playing aaxx kind of hands.
As like some others players who switched from nlhe to plo, i overplay axx.

In 3bet/4bet pots i got lost on postflop.

I would like to learn how to play aaxx in hu, 3way and more way in 3bet 4bet pots etc.

I'm very interestet in defending my blinds.
Because on the one side one should play very little OOP, but on the other side you cannot fold 90% against a loose stealer, can you?
+ the equitys are very close..which point is more important?

The would be nice to know from a PLO point of view. Thu ♦

What are you going to do if PLO games or, RNG save us, all poker games dry up? (Edit: oops, disregard it, I didn't see a similar Q above.)

Can one be able to whatch the show afterwards or on a stream? As you can see, I am not Silver at the moment.
