Trying to learn a new poker variant

Hi everyone

ive decided after 15 years of playing NLH MTT'S recreationally that i would like to try something new to me. so i think im going to try to play PLO MTT'S. i was wondering if someone here could point me in the right direction into some free study material for pre flop ranges and maybe some good PLO streamers that i can watch and ask questions? i currently use octopi for NLH but theres nothing on there about PLO from what i have seen. Thanks for any advice given. And GL to everyone on the sunday grind

I have actually been playing PLO recently. Never really strayed from NLH. 

I do not have any information regarding streamers or anything however. If you use coral or Ladbrokes (these differ slightly on casino but they are actually the same company)

They have a few PLO freerolls everyday. It's only for tickets to more tournaments but the practice for free is worthwhile. I have learnt loads by just doing. 


If you have both coral and Ladbrokes you can only enter any tournament one time only on one site. I didn't realise they were owened by the same company and the tournament entries on each site enter the same game. 


Free is good practice. I'm sure other sites do PLO freerolls but I just know these ones do specifically.

Honestly, I’d recommend sticking with NLH, especially if you’ve already spent 15 years playing it. That’s a lot of experience and intuition you’ve built up, and it’s a big edge to throw away. PLO is fun, but the variance is much higher and edges between players are usually smaller, especially in tournaments. In NLH you’ll often have clearer spots where you’re well ahead, while in PLO even strong hands can run very close. If anything, I’d suggest adding a bit of PLO just for fun on the side, but keeping NLH as your main game where your experience actually gives you a real advantage.
