geoff's point about playing o8 in order to increase your profitablity is very valid.

i find that i can make much more playing o8 than i can playing he. i think that this is a combination of things. first, i think that o8 is a better game for me. secondly, i feel that my competition is just not that good at all. like geoff said, many of your opponents dont know how to read their own hands, so it is doubtful that they will be thinking on a second or third level.

playing tight at the low limits is the key to winning in this game, and once you get a better feel for the game you can get very agressive. sure, you get quartered sometimes, but in the games i sit in you tend to get paid off by second nut hands very often.
