In my past couple of post I have talked about how my hold'em game has improved by playing PLO.  Well I just notice this epically this weekend.  After taking so bad beats and playing bad at PLO trying to get my money back I played some hold'em.  I have not had a losing session.  The aggression and hand reading you pick up from PLO lets you not be scared when someone makes a big bet and it teaches you that laying down top pair is sometimes is the right thing to do.  And when someone shoves on a queen high board and you have jacks they do not always have AQ. 

The only problem that I have is still laying down aces.  I find that hand the hardest to get away from.  I could not fold it even when there was a one liner to a ten.  I guess I should just smarten up and realize that not all players epically in the micros will not bluff on that board.

So what to you think of PLO helping anybodies hold'em game.
