+1

I would also like to know what is running out there cash game wise (at the Rio in particular where I am staying). I'm heading out there in a couple of weeks and may be looking to play a bit during down time. Thanks

Also surprised he shipped a scoop.

well not particularly....doesn't seem to be a very thinking player but he's not as terrible as above usually. pretty aggro which isn't always bad.

loads of bad regs ship scoops...no big shock ha

against my range there flatting 3/4 of his stack with that **** is so lol bad...do it with a middle run down or something 10 times better. w/e though **** plays usually seem to pay off esp at weekends

I've been seeing 1-2 PLO8 cash games appear on Bravo at Venetian and/or WSOP (Rio) the last few weeks. Usually in the evenings, if at all. Virtually all O8 games are limit.

There are a couple threads about this with few/no replies (including my own: http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/44...-wsop-1536878/ )

Sorry, don't know. I arrive this Sunday night for 5 nights to play mostly all LO8. Counting down the days/hours until I get there.

Cool, I will be playing some cash games on top of a few tournaments so maybe I'll give that a go if plo8 isn't running.

so far I have seen a waitlist for 1/2 plo8, nothing else other than Big O which I haven't played before and higher limit 08. Fortunately I also play NL and so far the 1/3 tables have been pretty soft.

I played in the $10/20 (half kill) game again yesterday, and holy **** it beggars belief how soft it is sometimes. It was literally like something like $0.25/0.5 limit online.

For you guys who wanna know what live games are running at WSOP(or anywhere for that matter), download the Bravo Poker app on your smart phone/device. It will show you what games are running pretty much anywhere and also shows the waiting list most of the time.
