I was wondering if theres a change to have next league or a future league playing either plo or hilo8 instead of hold em. Would there be interest in this or does every1 here prefer hold em?

No,because Holdem is more popular and everyone knows how to play it.And there were similar posts before about changing the type of poker to Omaha,but nothing has changed as you can see.

I don't think the league would have a lot of success changing it every week to a PLO game or something like that. But a one-week change up of PLO or HORSE or something may be interesting/fun...

A lot more trash play. Even if people know the rules, there is a lot less people that know basic strategy and stuff (myself included).

Boring!!!! Poker.org can do what they want but Pain is right its will be a donkathon. I would play but not on a team, I suck. Dont care for the game unless its a freeroll. Go to poker stars and start a home game, see who will join you. Im sure the people who make what we do possible already are very busy. No time for PLO.

There are some great games on offer on merge that are available nowhere else at the moment....A-5 loball...5 card stud....for example...

there are 2 games / weekend...why not have one nlhe game every week, and one different game on the other day..it might inspire people to learn another variant of poker...

and yup..the games are freerolls...and nlhe aint the only game in town...some players might even find they enjoy a new game more...especially the losing nlhe players..theres some action to be had on the merge cash tables with other games...5 card draw...what a great game...would be fun too..:) ...not to mention my own fav...badoooooooooki...

and for those of ya who hate donks...badugi is the game with least variance...say yer dealt a 6 or 7 badugi...the equivalent of AA in holdem....the chances of yer hand holdin up in a multi way pot are way better thasn in multi way pots than in nlhe...i kid you not...;)...

try em before ya buy em..:)

This is what you have the poll functionality for. Add one, ask people whether they'd like to and find out.

Adding a PLO tournament is absolutely no problem for us as long as there's a big demand for it.

Everyone gets excited about omaha games but when a forum puts them on, the participation is always lower than Holdem games

Most i agree an omaha would be good competition series
but the majority is beside the traditional poker according to me.
Could be even so that 100 dollar competitions would be the texas and the omaha though 50 dollar ones
the there could be two in a time

The variant of Poker Omaha Hi / Lo is a very fun and good poker derivation.
It would be great to any tournament or league could do with this variant.

I hope you like the idea Admins.

I would love to play Omaha as part of the series or the next league!! I actually prefer Omaha Hi then Omaho Hi/Low!! Or even a switch up 1 week Holdem, next week Omaha!! But, I dont make the decisions!! Im happy with whatever it is!! Im just happy to be a part of it!

I'd like to see some omaha games thrown in for a change, or even Horse. Let's see how well rounded some of the players are here. We could try a variety series where we have a different game every week. Badugi anyone?

No interest in omaha. Maybe omaha hi/lo. having a hard enough time moneying in no limit, much less trying to money with the variants.
