I'm playing in games on the CA Central Coast. $1-2-5 or 5-5 but the stacks are very deep and large pots the norm. Games are getting worse and worse.

Where are the best low-limit PLO games around the country?

You gotta **** around and find out. People with great games aren't posting about them on here.

why does this mean the game is bad?

I'm guessing it's a similar issue that I found at The Lodge in Austin. The entry-level 1/2 with a $5 bring-in PLO game allows unlimited restraddles from UTG (so it can get up to $320) and then match the stack.

So the games are either full of grinders and terrible, or they're full of insane degenerates (or people with very deep pockets) and you're doing 5-6 way flips pre for 1K a pop (and that war gets won by the deepest pockets since equities run so close)

I've seen people sitting 20-30 THOUSAND deep in these "entry level" games. So it's hard for those who want to learn PLO (or who just aren't rolled insanely deep) to go play because the games will play like a shallow-stacked 80/160 because the rooms don't put any protections in place, thus the recreational players get chewed up too quickly or they just don't sit down because they know with 600 bucks in their pocket they have no shot

If you think these game conditions are bad, imo quit plo and try another game.

oy vey. So you think that the following game conditions are good?

1. PLO games full of grinders where the only way you'll make $$$ is if you cooler someone

2. PLO games that at the lowest entry-level stakes are playing like shallow-stacked 80/160 games where your premium hands will face 4-6 other hands all-in preflop and thus you're playing at insane levels of variance where your skill edge is negated because you're playing preflop BINGO and giving up your edge to the gamblers?

That is a comical description of the Lodge games contained in a comical thread.

Where are the best low stakes PLO games? They’re wherever the guy asking on 2p2 isn’t.

All the games are going to ****. Try to make your game better instead of being a parasite.

Up to a couple decades ago I was a regular poster; very little lately.
I'm saddened by the large number abrasive useless posts; which IIRC is "noise".
