Direct from the UK? Highly unlikely.

If you go to Mexico for a minimum of 14 days then you can fly to the US after that. There is restriction on non essential travel into the US from Mexico but weirdly this does not count if you fly!

Also, apparently Canada is opening up to fully vaccinated travellers as of Sept. 7th. People could potentially spend 2 weeks in Canada (I hear Montreal is very good for live poker) and then fly to Vegas. Again, you HAVE to fly from Canada to US, all land/rail/boat borders are closed.

And you HAVE to have left the UK/EU at least 14 days before you fly to the US.
is this 100% at this moment in time ? I hear in Vegas they are now having to wear masks indoors again....

Would be QUITE and education watching anyone who was able to name the cards of John Duthie!

Morning All,

Been a member on blonde for some time but never really posted.

Looking for some advice on PLO which I'm looking to start playing / studying (micro stakes).

Suppose firstly would be what site would anyone recommend? Currently play on pokerstars but is there anywhere better / softer?

Next would be training sites? Is it worth me subscribing to any just yet as I'm only playing micro stakes? Also any software that would be beneficial?

Lastly any general advice about starting to play PLO? how to study? and also moving up stakes?

Any help / advice would be great.

Cheers

Jason


Hi Jason,

Welcome to blonde.

The answer to your first question is pretty much EVERYWHERE. Stars undoubtedly is the safest in terms of keeping your money. It has the best software of the options available to you. It has the most games. Overall it has the best security and customer support. Unfortunately its player rewards are not good which is of huge importance at the stakes you will be starting at. Secondly, the games are also overrall toughest.

I'd definitely advise trying a few of the European sites. DTD/Partypoker will be a popular fit around here given the forum is sponsored by DTD who are partnered with Party. Otherwise give ipoker/sky etc a spin and see where you do best and what you like most.

Runitonce has many good videos for PLO. At first I'd lap up all the good free information you can find on the internet. Post some hands in the Poker Hand Analysis (PHA) section of this forum and you can get some very good players giving you feedback and advice as well as some extra comments from the likes of Tikay and myself. Smiley

PHA really is a great learning resource. Given that it's free, lap it up! Whilst I don't want to direct you away from our forum, take a look at 2+2's micro stakes PLO sub section.

Invest in a HUD where you can analyse your Hands/statistics so you can identify mistakes and also your win rates. When you have a big enough sample of hands at any given limit that shows a nice win rate and your bankroll has grown enough that you can justify moving up without risking too much of your bankroll, then make the move or take a shot and if it doesn't go well, move back down. But be careful about this. If you are someone with tilt issues etc, take extra caution.

Very best of luck.
Got to be one of your best posts ! Was good to chat to you in Vegas,good luck for the future which im sure you will get as you seemed to have matured well in life !!!! Greek xxx
