I understand the main point of plo is to make flushes and straights
straights are often not good enough to win in PLO. If there's a 3 of the same suit out there someone most likely has a flush which beats a straight. If the board pairs also it can make a flush worthless.
If your playing live there's going to be a lot of muti-way action since noone folds in PLO and your going to need the nut draws plus the nut made hands to win a pot.
