PLO switch

first part is 25nl

I continued to lose at 25NL and I decided that I'm not that good and I'm going to be switching almost completely to PLO maybe not such a good idea but I'm sick of hold em and learning a new game is refreshing. I ran in godmode too but not getting ahead of myself

How many BI do I need to play plo comfortably? I currently have 48bi 25nl is that enough? Should I watch that series with Learnedfromtv on cardrunners I don't have the patience to watch it. Is anything from slowhabit really good advice or bad? obviously I'm not buying those books lol but its out there on the internet

I really dont like anything slowhabit makes.
Watch vanessa selbst for the basics and then some Whitelime/Galfond.
Basically deuces cracked has all you need. Jeff Hwangs "The big game strategy"
is good too, to get you started.

imo a lot of the microstakes plo advice out there is very bad and the advanced stuff you learn from the better instructors like galfond, etc may get you into too much FPS, which is easier to get caught up in overdoing than in holdem.

I like slowhabit's book as a resource to learn some things about preflop. I think the best way to improve is to just play a lot and get a very strong understanding of relative hand strength as it is 80% of making money postflop in microstakes PLO.

you're fine with 48bi for 25plo, I watched 1 video from learnedfromtv and I didn't like it

i prefer lefty for plo but that's just me

GL with the variance, it can be sick...
