Ok so I started with some PLO8 50 (Couldnt find any 2/4 LO8 games going which was were I figured to start my learning). I'm too lazy to read first and play later, I'm more of a plug-my-leaks-as-I-lose-to-much kind of guy. I guess one initial leak will be playing too many high hands. Here are 2 hands I'd like some advice on. Hand 1 I'm pretty sure I played right, hand 2 I have no clue if I played well or just got lucky.
For some reason the converter seems to think it's PLO,
but it is PLO8
