Well...I don't know if I'm lucky or whatnot, but tonight was the 2nd time I played a PLO tournament on FullTilt, first time was on PokerStars, and I won. For some reason...I find playing Omaha H/L a lot easier than NLHE. I was getting called a donk cuz I knocked out 4 people first hand. 2 people went all in so I called. Flopped Quads. Then 2nd hand a boat. I had a feeling that I was gonna eliminate 6 of the 10 players..and then go out on the bubble. It's play money, but oh well lol. And I find it pretty weird that NLHE pro's prefer playing PLO rather than HE. I may just continue in the PLO direction, however, there aren't that many tournaments that have PLO.

Most Omaha I've seen, as far as tournaments go, is mainly limit in Vegas. I also haven't been to Vegas in 6 or 7 months, so take that with a grain of salt.

Congratulations on the wins, hope the variance bug doesn't bite you too bad.

I was just in Vegas for a week and didn't see anything for PLO tournies. I was reading a magazine at one casino and there were some Omaha (mostly O8) tournies in Rio and California though.

Even for cash games, PLO is pretty hard to find in Vegas. I was on a PLO interest list 4 nights (2 at Venetian and 2 at Binion's downtown) and only once did a game get started, which was at Binion's.
Some days it feels like I've been standing forever, waiting for the bank teller to return so I can cash in all these Sklansky Bucks.

I know the feeling..I'll have to wait quite a while online before a 9 person sng will fill up with PLO players. Yet I'll see a table on Fulltilt fill up with people playing with Gus Hansen, Ram Vaswani, David Benyamine. Well..if I had the money..I'd do it too. lol. But yeah, as many pro's play, I'd like to see PLO tourneys on ESPN. Then again, I'd probably rather not. Next thing you know, there will be hour long waits at casino's waiting for a PLO table. Oh well, it's still fun.
