    This video covers a couple of hands that I played recently regarding Limit Omaha hi and Limit Omaha hi/lo and examples of what to do and what not to do. Normally I cover PLO, but I felt like playing Limit; it was close to where I live, and its a bankroll builder! Please lmk what you think in this video if you like it, hate it, etc! Tyvm for tuning in! I also won't be posting a video for about two weeks as I'll be in Iowa for the WSOP Circuit Event, then a brief stop in Vegas, then the MUG with Donkfish at the Hustler.

    Thanks Prof, the world needs more O8!

    Excellent stuff! "Grew up" on limit poker, and first O8 was a 6/12 with kill to 10/20. Beautiful way to build a bankroll. Unfortunately now the only consistent game is a 4/8 with half kill, but the rake eats away to make it truly a grind. Occasionally a 10/20 or 15/30 will get spread, but it takes some work to get it scheduled. Often will get 2 tables, but it only happens about every other month.
    Still love the content, PLO is still available daily, but I do miss the old days and easier money.

      A lot of times if you even start off small (like a 1-1 PLO with a 300 max buy in) that can get the ball rolling. Especially if most of them don’t feel comfortable playing - they may feel more comfortable all playing at a table where everyone is new!

      @@ploprofessor I really like the tutorial videos as well. Lots of great information to take in and mull over. I will add one comment and not trying to be critical, but I think you use "effective" sometimes when you mean "approximate". When talking effective stack size, it is always the smallest stack that is the "effective" between 2 stacks. At least that is how I understand the term being used in poker.

    That second hand is tough for him if you are very aggressive. The 3 should probably convince him to go ahead and fold because it is a big part of a raising range. If the flop were, for example, 77J, now I think he might just have to call you down due to the fact that you might bet a J or an overpair or simply bluff 3 streets.

      First of great question! For any limit game you only need about 10x the buy in.
      So…. For a 4-8 hi only with 1/2 kill I’d probably buy in for 160-200 (20-25 big bets).
      So to be properly bankrolled for that game you should have about a 2k bankroll.
