Ask a Poker Pro: No Limit Hold ‘em or Pot Limit Omaha? #shorts #poker

Показать описание

As a poker pro and poker coach I've had people ask if they should try Pot Limit Omaha or continue studying No Limit Hold ‘em poker strategy. My answer might surprise you!

When considering edges and win-rate, Pot Limit Omaha can appear to be the ideal choice when compared to No Limit Hold’em.

If you can find a good PLO game you are looking at a high potential as a strong Omaha player.

The only problem with that is actually finding a good PLO game, Pot Limit Omaha is nowhere near as popular as No Limit Hold ‘em so you’re often stuck with whatever PLO action is available.

Along with being more popular than Pot Limit Omaha (PLO), No Limit Hold’em (NLHE) cash game poker strategy also leaves you able to play over types of No Limit game types like No Limit Hold ‘em tournaments or NLHE Sit and Goes.

There aren’t that many Pot Limit Omaha poker tournaments running so, most of the year, you’re stuck being a PLO cash game player.

If you’re building huge chip stacks already but still looking for how to improve at Pot Limit Omaha, No Limit Hold ‘em, or big bet poker in general, Phil Galfond is here to teach you how to think like a professional poker player.

Are you a new poker player or a poker beginner? Do you just need the best Texas Hold'em poker strategy and best Pot Limit Omaha poker tips, or do you have a high stakes poker related question you’d like a poker professional’s advice on?

The nice thing about plo is that you actually get good hands often which makes the game more fun. I can play no limit for hours and get nothing

I find plo8 to be even softer than plo. Plo8 is my jam!

Maybe a silly question but I am new to poker.

In tournament play how does the main pot keep increasing in value?

Have you been messing around in PLO5, i feel players are pretty weak and predictable all around

Hi, in your videos about PLO could you say something about 5card PLO too? Thanks!

I would recommend that NLHE players at least learn PLO and play it, if nothing else it's a great way to stop loose calling. Kinda of like Crazy Pineapple Hold Em, if you have a problem being too sticky, these games will help cure you of it.

I played PLO a few times and I think its a very weird game. From what I read theres way more variance. Top pair has like 50% chance against a flush (correct me if Im wrong) and its so much more difficult to put the opponent on a hand cause theres more cards. Also the fact that you have a limitation in bet sizing I dont like that even in limit hold'em. Doesnt it make it harder to understand what the opponent is doing? Or harder to bluff? I dont know, I think its very weird. Maybe I'll try to play it again for fun in the future but for now Im focusing on NLH...
