    In Response to Re: Hello, Hi-Lo! : Thank you Dan! I ran rather well (= lucky) tonight, & ended up with a most pleasing £247.26. I'll settle for that! Rather pleased also to win the first ever £10 Hi-lo Tourney on Sky Poker, though to be fair, there were only 8 runners! But I think it was for about £50. I like Hi-Lo.  ;)

    I probably donated (even if indirectly) some of Tikay's stack.
    I yoyo-ed severely - down hugely, back to level then down a bit.
    It's a great game with an enormous amount of "strategy" involved.
    If you can't cope with the concept of variance I suggest that you avoid it.
    If you fancy a challenge then I strongly recommend the game.
    Hope to see many of you playing the game soon.

    I enjoyed last night and playing every single pot. Might come to sky and play properly a lot more now (maybe like just 90% of hands).

    Ultimately I just wanna make Tikay use that 'Deposit' feature on the cashier.

    is there any chance of getting any Hi-Lo tables for the free-play.


    I read the rules and don't really understand it, same as when I first heard Omaha, then I played the free-play and now I enjoy playing Omaha tournaments.

    I was thinking the same thing yesterday but ended up sticking a couple of quid down on a 2/4 table just to try it out.

    hi,

    Great to se O8B on Sky poker, only joined recently, and now  that omaha 8 or better is here i'll be playing alot more. Though i'd love to see some full ring O8B tables especially as the game is new to the site and new to alot of players. I fell full ring game would be easier to get to grips with the game and not because full ring O8B is my best game :P.

    I think i will give the cash version  of HI/LO a miss, after having read the thread by IRISHROVER and the rake. It seems the rake on this version is horrendous, may give the tourney version a go though as thats just a set buy in fee!

    I'd just like to add that I think that the articles which are linked to on the first page of this thread are excellent - extremely well written and informative, imho.

    well done Gregg.



    I still find it confusing, I watched a few tables last night and didn't see a low hand win any pot. Every showdown only a high hand won.

    I played Mere last night, I wouldn't recommend it during a BR challenge period, it wasn't pretty.

    Congratulations Aaron and Greg.

    You are being far too kind. You played very well. I seem to remember doubling you up so my advice to Greg is that if he wants my money then get in quick while it's still available.
