Mr.OMG isn’t liking new CAP games. Check out what he had to say about it in his blog.
“Hey Guys,
After a nice break from poker since the WSOP ME, I played my first 2 sessions yesterday.
The first was across tables of 400/800 and 500/1000 7game. Games were just okay, but I was happy to be playing and working on my mixed game. I finished down around 20k after losing a 3way allin in the NLHE round with 44 v AA v A5cc on J43cc9 with 60k in the middle. Everyone played it fine.
I took a break for a while and came back later to 6 table 200/400 cap PLO. I ran pretty hot and won around 80.
I really dislike cap PLO. I think it’s a boring game with few complexities, and those complexities are more about math and running hand scenarios through calculators off the table than they are about psychology, leveling, and adjusting to opponents and game flow. If cap PLO are the only games running, I’ll play, but I hope people start playing something else.
Gonna play more today. Talk to you soon.”
