What surprises me is that 86% of the people actually voted for player two, showcasing their powerful PLO knowledge for the whole of 2p2 to see.

I bet there are a lot of people deliberately voting wrong, like I did voting for Player 2, so this poll fails imo.

Some people are probably cheating and looking at the results, then voting whatever the majority is. Also, the question looks so cheesy. So a halfway intelligent person would probably figure it out based soley on the question but not so much in real-time gameflow. I bet when teachers grade tests for subjects they teach and are very experienced in, it's somewhat appauling. Imagine a very experienced poker player teaching a class about poker and asking the most basic poker questions ever (to us) and having your students bomb the tests and beg for extra credit the next day.

SCARY? THATS MONNNNNNEYYYYYYYY right there...now I see what people mean by omaha being the future...Holdem will always be around and I love it, but there are a lot of people jumping on the omaha train without fully understanding the game and that equals soft games.... Hell, I don't even understand it yet Ive only played 800 hands so far....
