Bart(UK) Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 A few years back when we had those regular variant games, Omaha, Stud, Badugi, Draw etc, I was never keen on PLO. I think it can take a while to adjust to the subtle differences (read also a little frustrating, I still struggle on occasions with "must use both held cards"!), but I'd say it's definately worth persisting with. I think it makes a refreshing change once you get used to it and genuinely believe you, and others, will grow to love it @thebestthere. It's also a superb low-cost & friendly opportunity to increase our collective understanding & prowess in the variant games that are increasingly present as cheap side events in poker tours, festivals & of course online series. Ultimately the forum will try to accomodate everyone's preferences, so do post thoughts and/or suggestions on alterative formats for consideration.

Bart(UK) Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Sorry didn't make it tonight, get as many points as you can because I'm back next week Good luck Nottingham21, good to see you join in On an unrelated point, I appear to have got a full tournament refund ($T) for last Sunday's server chaos despite being short stacked at the time of disconnect. If anyone was still in any tournaments at the time, make sure you also get your buyins and/or ITM payouts. Bart LIKE2FISH 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

avongirl Posted August 20, 2018 Author Share Posted August 20, 2018 Just to make you all aware, I always post a reminder on our Facebook group on Tuesday night/Wednesday morning. This is normally seen by around 40 members. Last week's was only seen by 11. I'm not sure if this is why numbers were down in the game last week. I've heard that the Facebook algorithm will limit views in people's newsfeed if predominantly one person posts in a group, therefore if some other members would post occasionally it would be appreciated. Let us know about any good value games or just what you're playing, and it should show FB that we are an active group.

avongirl Posted August 23, 2018 Author Share Posted August 23, 2018 Well done to Barry on another win this month , sandwiched by bottom spot last week! Although the top 2 have a little breathing space it can all change in the final leg. Back to NLHE, all set up ready to register.
