The Transition

Alright, so my last thread has gotten too big and takes forever to load. Also this seems like a good a time as any to start a new thread as I've been playing a lot more PLO than NL the last month or two. Overall I'm optimistic that I can become a decent player at plo. I've had a couple coaching sessions that have identified some small leaks but it seems like my general strategy is at least in the realm of reasonable, which is good to hear.

I've started to put in some time with Pokerjuice which I've been really impressed by so far. I also highly recommend ph33rox if you need someone to show you how to use it - I got a free hour of coaching and it was really useful. Some things I plan to do going forward (hopefully writing them down will make them actually happen!):
1. Spend some time essentially doing flash cards - randomly pick a plo hand and say the earliest position I open from. Any that are close check the pokerjuice rankings.
2. Same thing but for 3betting.
(I'm not implying pokerjuice ranges are exactly what I want to use, but this will at least give me a general idea)
3. Mark at least 5 hands per day I play and go through them using pokerjuice in the evening/weekend.
4. Post a hand a day in the forums.

Not sure exactly what my goals/plans are for plo. Right now I've played almost 30k hands and am down a few buyins at 50. I'll probably move up pretty aggressively if things go reasonably well.

A couple hands:
Really not sure
CO seems to be an aggro regular, not much on opener. Not sure about either street really.

x/r in 3bp as aggressor
Bet/calling may be better, not sure how often he's really stabbing here.

Odd preflop spot
Not really sure what UTG could possibly have. Button SNAP called which seems a little optimistic, but then I got it in on the flop with 0% equity so what do I know :)
