seems to me a lot of people are trying to learn plo. this is good as plo is a great game to learn and if u want to ever take poker seriously for incomes its not a bad idea to learn plo. one thing i notice however is people dropping all the way down to 2 plo to learn. c'mon. lets be serial here. the amount you are going to learn from 2plo and manies made at 2plo is absolutely non existant. example say u played stud all yer life and suddenly want to learn nlhe. so u start at 2nl. how much do u expect to learn with people calling 3 streets with bottem pair, and open shoving 80bbs with Q9o. not much.
to the same point, how much do you expect to learn from people 2plo. probably not much. BUT BB IM JUST LEARNING PLO!!!!one!!!!!1!!!! you have some kind of hold them knowlage and consequently know that weak draws and bad 2 pairs suck, then congrats u know enough about plo to skip the stakes where people dont know this info. phil galfond recommends dropping down a level or two when learning plo from yer normal hold em game and i think this is a fair assement. tbh if your at 25nl keep learning nlhe for a bit.
if you are taking the time to learn a new game and tbh i recommend some kind of roll built from nlhe so when plo learning goes shitty, as it does some times, its plo everyone runs like 30bi under ev from time to time, you'll want somewhere to be able to play a game you have a much bigger edge in at the time and to gain some sanity back. which is why i think if your learning plo you should start at 10 or 25plo. granted rake completely blows but c'est la vie. atleast you wont be playing against braindead droolers and and u'll actually learn something. anyone can tell u that you dont improve playing braindead droolers you learn by playing better players. if no one is ever going to punish you for playing weak draws and marignal 2 pairs then ull never learn. also i'd recommend getting someone to sweat u who knows how to play plo and making frands with people who play plo is always a good idea as well. just dont pester them to high hell because that gets annoying. also i don't recommend mad potters if you are just learning plo.
