Into Amphora? No. You need a black card and $10 in comp. No cash.

The other places are fine.

Good to see there'll be no question about the 1/2 PLO going this weekend.

Things are going well. Dana's got a bun in the oven (due 6/5 )and has still managed to make a handful of AC trips since we first found out. Hope all is well with you and your family too!

I'm going to exhaust every effort to get down there next week, though not to play tournies. When do you get into town? If Sunday, I'll definitely try to sneak down there. PM or call me when you can

Been playing a good amount of PLO along w/ NLHE at my home game recently and wouldn't mind jumping in the game now that I'm a bit more comfortable w/ it.

Well, not a full game report, but there is no PLO going. The only Omaha running is a 10/20 OE, 150/300 OE, and a 300/600 OE. There was a 2nd 10/20 OE going for about 30 - 45 minutes. But it broke cuz there were only 4 people.

I'll be down tonight and we can start the PLO game. It started last Friday night later in the night.

Also will be looking to play some PCHE if anyone else is interested -- that game usually starts late Fridays too.

Anyone coming for some PLO?

Congrat's on the Tide's win. Texas' backup QB almost made a game of it in the 2nd half, but it was nice to cash on the BAMA victory You not only got to see a great game, but also had a nice respite from the ball-freezing cold back here.

Catch ya tomorrow!

What's the level of play in the omaha game
How many people see the flop, is there a lot of raising and does it tend to be people raising real omaha hands or ****ty holdem hands like naked aces
What level of online play is it comparable too?

I HATE when people say stuff like a 50NL online player can crush a BM 2-5 game....a 100NL player online will run over a 5-10 NL BM game...let's not start that. Some can...some can't.

You will def see players raising naked aces.

The game runs different at times. There was a 2-5 game running last weekend that had a below avg player leave the table with like 4K. There are some very competent players in this thread that play. I've played with at least 4 of them....like any poker game "it depends".

Give the game a try....I'm bummed I can't be there til next weekend.

It's loose as hell. Pretty much microstakes online but the players (generally) are not as good. Not that there aren't good players, but you don't really see much in terms beyond basic play.

e.g. I'm usually surprised when I see people taking advantage of the button by raising pre-flop or taking it down w/ air when it's checked to them on two streets.

I've seen all sorts of pre-flop raising scenarios from perpetual limpfests, to the 90% $5 preflop raise, to short-handed potting every hand. Usually it's a mix of the first two. Had a 1/2 hand, got to $65 preflop. 7 people to the flop. Not sure what that signifies, but take it for what you will.
