oh no wonder why, they dont want to lose no matter what. I always wondered why they would take such a hit on the 100k guaranteed when it first started. the total including rakes would only be like 85000, but now i see why. they built the tournies' popularity and now they more than fill the guarantee. the tourny is up to 150k and there is usually 200 grand or more in the pot.
I guess with that super easyroll rake when you lose you get $1 rakeback so its pretty much like paying $1 for a $100 guarantee....looks like around 50 people enter....nowhere near the amount on the 2000 guarentee $1 on AP.
Usually those guarantee tournys are plus/minus 1o% of the guarantee anyway.
Oh yeah....I see you have another omaha post penciled in...I think im going to start...I will start with some play money tables to practice reading the hands.
I watched the last 20 mins of that 50c SNG that you were just playing....you're right...you crushed those guys....lol
Its very easy when u know what u are doing. I would love to give you lessons on Hi/lo once u get omaha down. It's the best game to play if you are a good reader and opposed to the luck factor. You can devour most of the competition in this game as most is god awful with no understanding what-so-ever of how to play. Even at higher levels, the play is really awful.
I have never seen omaha played... where you find tournaments for that type of game?
Are we talking live? Because every online site i've played at has omaha on there.
Live I can't find a game anywhere besides the ones I create myself. In the casino you may be able to find pot limit omaha, but its mostly for high rollers. Learn the game first by playing playchips, if you can actually find a table not full of lunatics who don't understand the game. If you ever see an omaha table where no one is raising preflop, sit there. They are playing the game right.
Yeah H/L looks good.....only read the beginner strategy and concepts then watched a few matches. Even at high tables some players seem to get confused by which hand they actually have and forget it MUST be 2 cards from your hand and 3 from the table.
Even then when someone makes a high flush or a full house it seems that they get too excited and start betting too much when there is 2 other people in the pot and the others can very easily have a higher full house.
Also its funny when some players think they flop a wheel that it will always win at least the low....lol
I guess a lot can be learned from those losing hands.
Yea cause I'm about 2-3 hours away from Atlantic City, and I frequent there, but I've been straying away from the poker tables because they got some top players there. I try to stick to craps... but eventually I want to sit down at a table in AC again...Quote:

Just keep watchin me play those 60c sngs prolifical, when i show a hand see how many times I play jacks or tens.....almost never! I lay down huge pairs routinely preflop because they are just no good. You are looking for Hi and Lois, both pots or at least 3/4. People don't understand that. They are betting the pot at the nut lo and then they lose half their money because the lo hand can always be split, the high most of the time cannot.Quote:
