According to one poster in the Horseshoe Cleveland thread it was a HU 50k freezeout.

Re: Live PLO Games: Master List

confirmed the Venetian and Aria plo games to be soft and action packed!

one guy clearly over valued his KK49ss and got it in pre vs my AAxx lol.

However, I think that the Venetian's plo is more action and crazier as the straddle is almost always on (1/2 and button straddles for 10), so if you're sitting there with 200-300 stack and there's a straddle, it's really really easy to play your big hands fast and not having to worry about post flop tough situation. The Aria game is very loose/passive pre, I literally see 7/10 players have vpip of 95% and just 2% pfr lol. You really don't need to do anything but just wait for the nuttiest hand and have them ship the money for you.

Re: Live PLO Games: Master List

Moving to northern NJ next month and wanted to know where would be the best places in AC or Pennsylvania to find 1/2 or 2/5 PLO or PLO8. List here seems a little dated.

I've seen some games listed now and then at the Borgata via the Bravo ap, but it doesn't seem very regular. How about the Taj or Trop?

Borgata is about the only place you will see this game spread in AC. And it is pretty sporadic. I don't know why but its really hard to get this game going. You have to be willing to play shorthanded until people come by. This time of year there are more recreational players trying their luck at PLO but I feel that the level of play can get pretty good. Depends on the night though.

Parx will sometimes get a PLO game, I haven't been there to play in it in quite some time but it used to be good. A few players constantly pushing the action.

Deleware Park also used to have a game that ran Fri and Sat but I have not heard much about that recently either.

Just played each several times in the last couple of weeks, and i don't agree with the 2% PFR at all. Very lineup-dependent i suppose.

But the V structure (mandatory $5 bring in; round up to nearest nickel pre; blinds together count as $5; $200 to $1k buy-in) actually is more of a $2-5 game without the $7 in blinds, so it's suitable for short-stacking minus getting your stack eaten up by blinds, sort of the best of both worlds for my learning regimen. If I have $250 in the SB with AA72, even with no straddle:
  • Venetian: limper, someone else pots to $20, call, now I'm pretty comfortable potting to $90.
  • Aria: limp, they pot to $15, call, then I can only pot to $69.

Note that in both cases, i usually found there to be at least one person at the table raising 30 to 50% of hands. Also the Aria forbids straddling in the $1-3 game, I suppose to be newb-friendly?

In both games if you flop the nuts, no redraws, you WILL get paid off by worse.

Re: Live PLO Games: Master List

played at Venetian 1/2 plo again yesterday. One thing really annoyed me was that when it was down to 3-4 handed, guys started to complain that it's not enough ppl and they wanted to leave. Floor came and said you guys can play for free! absolutely no rake! I said **** yea. One of the live tards said i'll play till the next dealer come up...I was like dude...you'd rather sit in a rull ring game where you get 20 hands per hour and having to pay max rake every hand you play?! seriously? He shut his mouth and left the 3 handed game 5 hands later...

What are ppl thinking? ...
