Hey guys,

There's a soft live PLO 1/2/5 and some times 5/10 game in my city. The word is thousands and up to tens of thousands are passed. Atleast 2 tables are running 24/7. Just wondering what your thoughts on this strategy is:

-Play a million hands online and patch up my play
-Watch the live game from the rail and make notes on players and their tendencies and see how the game really plays
-Make a run at the table once I hit a million hands online and can beat micro/low stakes online

What I mean by making a run at the game is by going in with the sole purpose of getting as much money as I can than get out. Buy in for max which is anywhere from 500 to $2000 depending on the blinds and crush the game for as long as I can than cash out. I think this strategy requires an element of surprise as there seems to be a regular number of players that play the game. I suppose they will give me more action when I first play to figure out my tendencies and feel me out. I am hoping this is when I can exploit them and make a run at the game. My goal would be to bleed them until they develop a strategy/feel againt my play. The time frame that I am looking to get in than get out is 1 to 2 months of play, but will extend if the game is still juicy.

One thing to note: live is full ring and online looks to be 6max

Look forward to your thoughts.

are you starting you 1MM hands today? that's like a 1 year minimum endeavor by itself.

also, this is a NL forum.

Yup. I'd try posting this in a PLO forum, probably Low Stakes PLO. Also, this is a bankroll question at least as much as its a practice before taking the shot question, so I'd address that in your re-post.
