Hello @payoffwiz , how are you doing today?
So, my top goal in poker for this year is to increase my volume by at least double. My first attempt to do this was that I challenged all the regs in the game i play to a phil galfond type hu challenge. I offered to play anyone heads up for 2 hours and offered a side bet for the winner, and I gave 2-1 odds.
To answerer your questions about live plo. Live plo is way softer then online. First thing I believe a win rate in some live games could be as high as 50bb/hr which is i am guessing about 20bb/100 if the dealers are good, but i probably average around 15bb/hr (I am not that good lol). The biggest difference (in my opinion) between live and online poker is multi way pots. Most live games i have played, 3-bet pots and a fair amount of 4-bet pots are going to the flop with at least two other players. So you have a lot of 3 and 4 way flops with low spr’s. That said, if you have a strong pre flop game, you should easily be a big winner at most if not all low stakes live games.
