Pokerstars got this promotion on NLHE 10+ zoom where you collect winning hand hole cards for 0.50-1.50 win (tiny chance of $1000). It's really fun and def +EV if you know anything about poker.

So I warm up to that before PLO session, but man NLHE is SO ****ing boring! No money goes in unless its setup or flip... I think that dutch pro guy "lexus" (I call him that) said a while ago that there is no money in Holdem anymore. After revisiting NLHE I get it.

Feel like Golden age of PLO is nigh And we already got an edge through practise if nothing else. People even now make such huge mistakes, while NLHE I feel is cracked already. Opinions?

PLO has four cards, NLHE has two. Four > two.

Some might even say four-card game is SIXTEEN times better than two-card

golden age of plo? Don`t think so. I have the feeling that PLO is drying up. This is not based on any numbers, but my feeling tells me that compared to last year this year is less traffic on PLO. I have also the feeling that this forum drying up. But this is, as said, also only a feeling.

Anyone any stats to check this?

I just checked a bit myself. Looks like the games are drying up. About the forum i doesnt know, but makes sense that when traffic at plo is going down that then the plo section also has less visitors...

I object. Always 100+ players on PLO10 zoom, up to 30% "VPIP" with huge leaks. plenty of ~40% VPIP normal tables. On high stakes like PLO2 it might be different.

Ok. i correct my statement. Traffic at the reg tables drying up. Traffic at zoom: i don know.
I don`t remember how much traffic at zoom was last year at the time tbh.

Maybe some zoom-regs can tell us something about this?
My guess: not growing.
