..so that your game becomes less profitable. I have always woundered weather there are simply too many fish at Pacifc, always overplaying starting/hands

i know having an edge over others helps me profit, but if theres too many fish theres more chance of being outdrawn OOTM (is there an abr. for out of the money?)

plus more of these scenarios rollercoaster my love/hate relationship for this game.

a freind of mine recommends variations (omaha hi/lo etc) stating you need more skill and less luck. Can anyone confirm this? A game with more skill and less luck than holdem sounds amazing to me.
