accidentally entered lo hi tournament online thinking it was hold 'em. Watching this while I play for the first time lol.
brooo im at the same point right now😂😂😂
I have done the same thing online so many times lol
Love it 😂😂
Bro!! I just did the same!
Daniel, you're the only person who's ever been able to explain Omaha to me. Well done and thanks!
After watching this video, I tried (PL) Omaha Hi-Low for the first time and finished 7th out of 59. Not too shabby. I'm definitely liking it more than NLH. :)
2nd year in a row before playing an 08 bracelet event am I watching this to learn - I cashed it last year though!
PARKOR JOEY MUSH
such a wonderful poker ambassador. surreal long term relevance. done so much to encourage new players to the poker world. well done Daniel
Free advice for you kids out there: if a stranger comes to you and asks "Looking for action?" you reply: "No." Learned the hard way, trust me.
Same goes for playing pool 😀
Someone tried to play you heads up in plo8 lol?
Same thing goes for hookers, just say Neaux 😢
Solid basics covered pretty quickly, good job
Daniel negreanu is a beast
i love this man so much! he is so cool whatever he does and keeps always so positive! well done Daniel
Thanks Daniel. I used to be a NLHE Cash & tournament player but since watching streamers like TalonChick & jcarver play Hi-Lo, NLO8, Omaha Hi-Lo has become my game of choice. So much more fun & the number of hands that you can play is so much bigger.
Manas Phadke same here buddy! used to only play 6max NL and now because of jcarvs i am hooked on 8-game. gl and keep grinding;)
I wouldn't really say it's so much bigger. You should be playing somewhat of a similar % in both games, all things else equal.
Daniel, I mean this when I say that you’re the greatest ambassador for the game we’ve ever had. You seem to genuinely want ppl to love poker as much as we do. I thank you, and applaud you, you’re legacy will live forever!
So good analysis of the game in less than 20 minutes. Thnx a lot Daniel you're a great guy. Greetings from Greece.
thanks for the info brother I love seeing you uploading more!
Watching this videos right now. One thing about you are one of the GOATS (don’t matter what new school says) is the easy way you’re explaining all this stuff. Master class baby. Just no sense.
Five days after you posted this video you sat down next to me at the 20-40 LO8 table at Bellagio and chatted with us (but didn't play, unfortunately). Good video--I would say you covered 70-80% of what I would teach someone (if I were to teach them all the advanced LO8 strategy). One thing that wasn't discussed much was PLO8 vs LO8 and I feel this video was geared more towards LO8 (which is fine since it's the more common live cash game).
Thanks for the video Daniel. Now, it would be really nice to be able to watch some live action of this game with the hole cards being shown - like we see so much of in Hold'em.
Seriously they don’t televise these games enough
subscribe to pokergo and watch some previous wsop omaha final tables, great learning tool.
THANKS FOR YOUR VIDEOS DANIEL!
He really knows what he is talking about with this Omaha Hi-Lo instructional video. Well done !
This a very helpful video. Thanks Daniel!
Wow, this is so in-depth analysis. Incredible to get this free content. I feel ready to play some high stakes Omaha-8 now.
@juanancriadillas 🙄
LOL. In depth?
This is just the absolute fundamentals
@@chimo7007lol
Always loved this guy...great tutorial. I wanted in this game...I know now when I have won some good$$$ I was mostly lucky. Frankly I used to lose hands with what I thought was a lock low and just keep quiet so no one knew I had no clue what I was doing...lol
A lesson on one of my favorite Poker games from the great Daniel Negreanu. Sweet!
I’m a champion at this game now I’ve watched this video around 70 times. I watch it every time I’m about to go in and play I don’t change my play at all I fold until I get the correct combination and 8 out of ten times I’m either gonna scoop or get half the pot. Once you learn all the mistakes there’s no reason why you can’t win every time you play. Thank you Kid Poker. Don’t leave home without an ACE!!
Champion lol
Great intro Daniel. You are a great ambassador for the game sir.
Thank you! Very straightforward and helpful.
Yooo your spitting straight jewels. Bout to listen to this on a daily basis fr. Thanks my brother
I'm heading to vegas for WSOP in July!!! Can't wait! playing "The Giant"...love the buy-in, love the deep stackiness! I will be at the rio for day 1 of main event...I hope to meet you Daniel (although I tend to develop a speech impediment when I see famous people...I walked past Phil Ivey once and it was horrible...my brain forgot how to make words!). Anyway...I'm renting a car this year while in vegas...can anyone provide suggestions on good cheap places to eat? Also, if there was a cool non-tourist thing to do or see while there.
Thank you so much for this Daniel
Great video, thanks!
thank you :) keep it up brother!!
Thank you sir, your the best!!
Daniel, I would love to see you go over pot limit and no limit omaha. 2-7 triple draw and explain the difference between badugi, baducey and badacey. Thanks great job!
Forget explanation, do a tutorial on them. That'd be neat. I'd like to get more into them.
Tanku Daniel following you strategies from the beginning of playing poker included your masterclas ;) tanks a lot. I tried to play an plo tournement for fist time 33$ i just dind understand it at all like i have nut flush how is it an split pot... even maild te platform xD omg its plo8 never hurt it im a new player in this. Just started playing for 2 years with money. Now im in the bubble quick ressearch before i make the final hahaha. So lets play thumbs up to you 👍👍😁
Awesome video! And thanks for keeping it entertaining. Go "el matador!"
Great video Daniel
I was playing way too wide prior to watching this.
About time you got around to O8 😂
These are so good. But it would be great if they were re-uploaded with more graphics on the examples. Thanks for a great video !
It looks like the greater number of hole cards makes it more randomized, thus favoring big-stack players, even with fixed limit, just like NLHE. Correct?
Love this game
That moment when I accidently joined an omaha tourn on pokerstars, and then have to learn with this video while playing my first hands :O
When playing O8 that quarter section is much more relevant than I initially thought
Great vid thanks
I find hi-lo so much more fun than regular hold'em.
I just entered a hi lo tournament on bovado, accidentally clicked on it cause I thought it was NLH. Took 4th out of 150+ people. I had to learn on the fly bc I'd never played it before. So yeah now I'm here 🤣🤣🤣
It's actually more enjoyable than regular NLH
playing an O8 trny in 15minutes, this was great to watch in the bathroom stall beforehand. thanks!
Thanks for the tutorial Daniel, I just picked up on a few tips there to help my game.
I must say, you have the best personality of all the poker pros. Voting you # 1 Thanks for the educational vlogs.
Thank you, sir!
I accidentally joined a 120 player PLO Hi/Lo tournament..I know how to play PLO, didnt really get the Hi/Lo part but didnt play garbage like most people.
Found it quite easy, finished 2nd place for $40..Had the lead 25bb vs 8bb but he had a lucky streak.
Think I might play more PLO, a bit more to calculate but it's fun and fish don't know how to play.
Cash games were draining my bankroll, just keep chipping up but you lose one big hand and you're down for the day.
SNG's and other tournaments seem pretty soft too.
15:15 Robert Francis O'Rourke impression
He forgot to mention you need 4 or 5 dealers at the table. PROTECT YOUR HAND. Many casino dealers get totally confused by this game and miss who really has the low.
I subscribe because of Mikey Hash.
Salutări din România ;)
Thanks Kid…I shall go back and redeem myself now 💪🏼
Jumped into my first PLO 8 Tourney, while Dnegs is teaching me how to play.. SWEET.. did o.k. for my first time.. Won like 8 hands in a row.. but I am still missing something. I will figure it out... I hope..
Hi Daniel, I proposed to you before and exchange of coaching, you to me in poker and I to you in Spanish. Take it man!!. Tx
lol
Thank you thank you ...I've been winning thank you thank you
Yo Mr. Negranu, where'd you get that shirt lol...
How many big bets should you sit with in a cash game?
This game is so much fun. Thanks for this video - although it would have saved me a lot of money if it Dame put 5 years ago 😂
Thanks Daniel - best guy to give the the skinny on the game.
Wicked game
Gahahahahaha!! Go to 7:13 and press play. Daniel, great advice. You just confirmed everything I've learned over the years. Listen to this video closely, people!
?
I wonder how Daniel would play KQ23, a hand he mentions near the end.
ROMANIA e alaturi de tine, succes.
I am playing in a tournament (on break right now) and I am 5 positions out of a paid win (27th or better) and I had pre-flop KK Qh 8h and I folded because it was not KK Qh 10h or better. Was that a good move or should I have gone for it? It was 800 to call to see the flop and I had 4,738 chips. Blinds go up to 750/1500 in 5 minutes now. I have folded everything except one hand that was AA and something good. The only hand I played and won this whole tournament. Every other hand was none of the good hands you mentioned in this video. UPDATE: I folded everything else (none were good hands mentioned in this video) and squeaked in to paid spot at 25. =)
The thing about Hilo and Omaha in general, it feels like you’re playing with a completely different deck. Whole mindset has to change from Holdem.
Actually you can use the same card for both high and low. AK high can also use Ace for the low.
I'm sure someone who has won millions playing poker knows that .
@@uofajoe99 Lmao right? Some of these people must not know who this is.
Next game I want to see is 2-7 single draw. I thought I had got the fundamentals of the game but I found myself always losing to hands just a tiny notch better than mine (like 7-5 versus 7-6, etc).
I love that game and there is little to non learning materials available online. But he is teaching the limit games now. I would settle for 2-7 triple draw though.
If you're frequently losing at NL 2-7 SD with made 7s, check up your opponents' sleeves.
Lol, ok I MAY have meant 8-7 versus 8-6.
lol, exactly what Adam said. Somebody upstairs doesn't want you to win if you're losing with 76 lows in 2-7 SINGLE draw. But I know that pain. The same person is driving my poker game from above, too.
It'd be cool if they turned 8-game in to 9-game by adding NL 2-7 single draw to the mix.
If I have a pair of 7s and the board is 5689A do I have just a pair of 7s or is it a straight? I'm assuming just a pair of 7s because you have to use both hole cards
Correct, unless you also have a 4 with it for an 8 high straight, or a 5, 6, 8, or 9 with those 7s (just one being used, of course) for a 9 high straight, or a 10 with it for a 10 high straight. Without any of these combinations, and you only have a pair of 7s.
Cheers Daniel, entered hi-lo by accident. Only knew the hi😁.
Just did the exact same thing. I was getting really lucky with flushes for a while - I think - then out.. LOL.
It's a fun game! Try it again
Like your AMEX Card, don’t leave home without it - Ace ..... Thank you Daniel.
bravo
Thanks for the video. I still don't understand how to determine the low hand.. I tried playing at my local Elks Lodge against a bunch of 90 year old dudes and they didn't help at all and took all my money.
Lmao there has to be 3 low cards 8 or lower on the board for there to be a low! Then you have to have 2 cards 8 or lower in your hand to make a 5 card low hand boss.
OFC Poker!!!!
Daniel, doesn't A 2 3 4 5 make a straight? I assumed paired 2s make a pair and doesn't count for low, so a straight would also fit in that category?
Ha! I wasn't thinking of anything. I play hold em religiously, but I wanna learn Omaha. Thanks for the reply sir.
A pair doesn't count for a low because the cards have to all be different ranks, but having a low that is also a straight or flush doesn't stop you from having a low.
Its different from 2-7, because straights and flushes *do* count against you, which is why 23457 is the best hand, and not A2345.
It's both a straight and a low yes
Western Stud High Low Poker played against the dealer. Dealing at G2E in Vegas next week....... Booth 5543
What about playing a live card? That does tend to get confusing.
Daniel Negreanu I think he means the "live low" term when you have A24x on A236K you have a '"live four" for low
13:45 "If you are against aggro players, you can check-raise in position to thin the field." How, exactly, does one check-raise when in position?
Omaga hi low is really complex gamble game! i mean is not often profit with lowest hand!
It's cool, the Spanish thing works for me.......ariba ariba Dan!
Is the lo worked out like Razz if its tied on the highest lowest card?
Same shit, razz is 5 lowest cards period though
So there is no declare?
This game confuses the hell out of me? How is a2 on a board of 678 any good? Isn't a nut low vs a nut high something like someone having top 2 ak vs your lowest pair connected as 2? that woul'd be the lowest hand a pair of 2,or aces I guess. 678 you have no pair?
Great game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Does anyone know an online poker site that has Omaha Hi-Lo?
O8 should be played with K high. Aces should ONLY be low. TJQKA is NOT a straight here. A2345 is still the nuts for low and is still a straight, , but the Ace in your is next to worthless for the high. This makes it impossible to have a monster low with awesome high, such as
As2s3c4. The strong low creates very weak flushes and no high pairs. The only really good low hand with decent high potential would be A23K with a suited king. KKA2 would also be a beast, but could not have counterfeit protection. This should make the balance between low oriented hands and high oriented hands more level. I expect this game would be far better played with 5 cards.
Why are you allowed to not bet the nuts in Omaha H-L specifically? And why do you think this rule is stupid? (I understand it only applies to the river when you are last to act - you must bet or raise to avoid "soft play").
Because in some situations, getting quartered, or sometimes even less, costs you more money than what you make. And you can get quartered (or worse) for high too, not just low.
bro the spanish thing is awesome
im hi lo does straight consist only in 4 cards
"Layne, Don't you know what nut-nut mean, baby?"
Not hating Daniel but I can’t keep up with your fast talking and poker terms I don’t know of haha. Do you have a video teaching us the language so we can keep up?
what about AA55?
It's not a great hand, but if you can see a cheap flop, you might be able to make a wheel or a set, and you have less chance of chopping the low because you have blockers. If it's suited or double suited, you also have a chance to make a nut flush and draw to a low with half the pot already locked up, barring a paired board on later streets.
I don't know why this game isn't more popular than hold em.
omaha hi-lo is not only limit! also no limit and pot limit is possible
Thanks Daniel!! Let me hold a $1,000 😂
I challenge you to play me in o8.
good spanish mate :)
Watching this while missclicking on hi/lo tournament :D
I noticed in your list of Powerful Low Hands you went from A-2-3-4 to A-2-4-5. Wouldn't the next best hand be A-2-3-5?
The best hands for making straights are hands with two connected cards, one gap, and another two connected cards, like 9-T-Q-K, 5-6-8-9, or 7-8-T-J. The best hand like that in Hi-Lo is A-2-4-5, because it has more chances to make a straight and is also a really good low draw.
Not always having an A plays better. Think of a flop like A4K or A49: that's when hands like KK23 or 9923 double suited play wonderfully against anything but AA23. Which you'd know preflop about, in most cases.
Daniel,you win because your nice Gentle Man,
