    Default Early PTOmaha Stats



    Obviously I am a pro at PLO and should give up my day job etc.

    Should I be winning playing like this?

    Yeah. I'm around 36-38% in 6max.

    Great results, but I wouldn't over-analyze your own stats for gameplay. PTO's something I really only use to pick out winners and losers and see how they win and lose.

    I am extremely tight preflop. If I have 1 card which isn't connected to the other 3 I will instafold hands like KKJ2, KQJ3, 789Ar where others may see a flop. This is partly because I don't yet trust my playing of marginal ahnds and so want to give myself the chance of having monster hands and redraws when i hit.

    I am aiming to take the same line of education I took with NL Texas Hold 'Em.

    I am starting of pretty much playing super TAG in a full ring game with a large player pool and with minimal consideration to position and opponents. I will loosen up slightly in later position and obviously if someones a total donk I will notice, but I am not for example going to try hard to pick up that one player will always call the flop with any sort of hand and fold on the turn if a scare card falls.

    When I have raised preflop in a shorthanded pot I will usually fire on flop as I would if my AK missed in Hold 'Em. Other than that I am just playing my big hands and draws very strong.

    As I become more experienced I expect I will start to loosen up my starting requirements and be able to pay more attention to individual reads. At this stage I will probably move to 6 max and shorthanded games and begin to play a more LAG style.

    I think preflop tightness helps me get paid off in some cases.

    E.g - I raise with 6789 and the flop comes down 456.
    Somebody with 45xx will put their whole stack in vs me and I imagine this is because they assume I only raise AAxx.
