for real, PLO is the NL of 2 years ago
Let's see. How many times have I seen this or something like it written in some forum? Not enough fingers and toes to count.
For how long? I think I saw some version of this the first time I logged in to 2+2 8 years ago.
PLO was "the game of the future" then, it's "the game of the future" now, and it will be "the game of the future" in 10 years.
Yes, it is soft. But I doubt it will replace Hold'em as the dominant big-bet form anywhere in the near future. It's too much a gambler's game for the analytical, "poker's not gambling" fish, and the real fishy fish lose their rolls faster at PLO than in NLHE.
