Yeah rake is pretty ridic. But I am beginning to think that 10 PLO is indeed beatable, so long as you don't run some huge value under expectation. Players are just generally very bad, it's quite possible to win a great deal by keeping exploitation to a minimum (and minimizing neutralish-EV situations) and just valuetowning bad players when you have the nuts.

It's just such a swongy game though, definitely not for the faint of heart. Maybe I'll be able to speak with more authority on this topic when and if I beat 10 PLO finally.
