¿What videos recommend for a total PLO noob?
Hi:
Im new here :) , normally i play SNGs 6m,9m and 18m turbo since 30$ up 100$, but i see some videos of PLO and I think is a very interesting game and I would like to start studying ¿What videos/books/articules recommend (Here in RIO and in another pages) for a total PLO noob?
Thanks for you answers :)
PD: Sorry for my creepy english

Your english is fine.....never worry about that. Tom Coldwell has some great vids for starting out and Stefan Legat has some wonderful vids too for later. I recently found this book to be very good but would like to hear other members comments as I don't know enough yet to even judge that very well

RIO videos are generally excellent, however as a COMPLETE beginner they might skip over some of the very basic stuff which you need when starting out. Donkr has an excellent article series called PLO from scratch, I would make reading this your first port of call and then move on to watching videos. It goes into starting hand selection, common situations etc and uses maths to back up its points (the article is a good introduction to the concept of flop equity distributions and how they affect pre flop decisions).

It's probably a good idea to start with the concept videos first, Tom Coldwell has done several. Then move on to live play videos. There is no "magic bullet" video so to speak that will make everything click for you, but the cumulative effect of watching many videos and seeing spots explained over and over will make things a lot clearer to you in a short space of time.
Oh, and play a lot! You'll find yourself in lots of tough spots to begin with and probably lose money for a while, but as a beginner that is ok. I think it was Phil that put this down to 'paying your tuition' when learning a new game. Videos and articles are good but in the end nothing beats experience. :)
Thanks for the feedback :)
What about just starting with all Galfond vids? I am considering starting this game too as a 100nl reg.
