I decided to try my hand at PLO the other day.

I have been thinking about "expanding my poker horizons" a bit, and wanted to find out if I might enjoy and/or be OK at PLO. I also thought that maybe thinking my way through a different form of poker would help me think a bit more robustly about my NLHE game.

Anyway, I put $10 on a .05/.10 PLO table ... and ran it up to $33 over about 50 hands. Easy game this PLO . Actually I probably got very lucky, but I'm not really sure!

So my plan from here is to still play probably 90% NLHE, but to mix in a few sessions of PLO here and there to change it up. If I'm going to play regular PLO I might also need to look at getting PT Omaha / Omaha Manager.

Speaking of NLHE, I'm finally on a bit of a heater - I'm up about 11 buy-ins over my last 2,500 hands @ 22ptBB/100, and have got back to just 22.5 buy-ins below my peak at 50NL - so hopefully I can keep that going ...
