UK trip number 2

So I went on another UK trip but this time it was with my wife and all about visiting family and friends and not so much playing poker. Having said that I did fit in a bunch of poker.

I played a few pub games where I enjoyed a couple of pints, a couple of smallish tournaments but mostly playing cash PLO games which I feel is my most improved game this year. I am winning fairly consistently online playing PLO and also had a number of good live sessions.

Its strange that for all the poker in California and Las Vegas there are very very few PLO games. There are lots of Omaha 8 limit hi-low games but almost zero pot limit or just Omaha hi.

This made my adventures in the UK more enjoyable. They have a strange dealers choice setup where the dealer asks if you want 2 cards (holdem), 3 cards (Irish) or 4 cards (PLO). Lucky for me most players choose PLO.

Anyhow the UK trip ended and I have flowb back to Las Vegas for 2 nights with my wife before going home to California.
