PLO is more efficient than holdem for separating fish from their buy ins. 100% this is true. Big O is more efficient still.

Big O is soooooo boring though because of how many hands you just basically can't play. I've played it enough at small stakes and taken a decent amount of money. But there isn't much skill involved there. Play better hands, play for scoops, win money (at least against most players). When you play with a bunch of people that all know what they are doing, then no one is getting it in unless it's a couple monster hands running into each other.

I'd rather play 5-card high only PLO

I agree that if u need the right line up to have a good big o game. The big o game at the MGM casino is ridiculously tight and no fun. I only play at the casino if it’s a semi private game, or play in home games where the line up is awesome and the action is nuts. Tight players aka bed bugs would never get a seat or have access to the game.

Btw, last night in big o I put 2100 in pre 4 way with kq678 double suited. Now u know why I get invited to games……. I scooped that hand by the way. Can’t let people push u around. Hahaha.
 
Battled it out at the Flamingo last night. Probably one of my best live sessions in a while, even if I couldn’t run it up. In for $400, down to $200, ran it up to $415 over the course of 5 hours and a few table beers.

Watched a kid get it all in preflop for $500 In a 1/2 game with A7o. The good old “This is my last hand, blind raise $100” on the button. Big Blind covers him with about $600, and rips it in with AKo. Button calls and says “gambol”. Game broke shortly after.

Real winner was finding a single spotted $1. By the end of the night, the whole table knew rare it was. Changed hands a few times throughout the night, had to be bought back from the dealer to avoid her raking it off. Good times.

Grinded up to $400, got it all in preflop with AK diamonds, up against AQ clubs, Q comes on the flop and I rebuy for 200

Gotta love it

-600 in holdem, I may or may not have tilted after losing another 70-75%er hand. Good times

+752 in craps though, so taking my 152 and thanking my degen side for tonight.

Just played of the strangest hands of my life.

Early in a tourney, 300/600 blinds. HJ opens to 3700. HJ has only limped pre up to this point, probably 3 hands.

We look down at red QQ on the button, consider folding (seriously), but are 4 tejano pecanos (@CraigT78 ) in and decide to just flat.

Flop KK6hh, she checks I check

Turn 7h, she bets 6000 I tank then call

River K, she checks, I downbet to 5000, she calls and flips over JJ

Strange.

You get to pick your screen name if you make it onto the final table, right? It better be Frogzilla.

I hope so… I’m planning to ask for Frogzilla and also ask the commentators not to pretend every play I make is good (they are always very uh, kind in their analysis)
