My O.E. Pink Game and Other Thoughts of Poker

I am excited about the Omaha 8, Stud 8 game I am going to have on Thursdays. I like the idea of the three rounds of Omaha and then three rounds of stud and so forth. I want to have each game go in half hour shifts, but I like the three rounds of each idea better. I am glad to see mixed games are starting to play more in the area too. Sure is nice to get a mixed of NL Hold Em' and limit games. I think that it makes poker more interesting and stimulates the mind more. Sure, a 5-10 limit game can be hell on your chip stack due to the draw out possibilites of Omaha 8, but it is so much fun. As for the Stud 8, I love to watch people play and try to understand they play the hands they do. I like thinking about the thought processes of the other players and why they think it is okay to gamble with certain types of hands. The truth is, I just have many ideas of games that I would like to run and and hopefully I can get people to try them out. I have this idea of runiing a mixed game that alternates with 1/3 NL Hold Em' with a $300.00 cap per player per pot, 5-10 limit omaha 8, NL 2-7 Single Draw with a 300.00 cap, and 5-10 Stud Hi with a .50 ante and a 1.00 bring-in. To me this adds a little bit of all the games and different strategies and skills to play them all are involved. To alternate between limit and NL can really test someone's skills. Also, the cap allows for someone not to lose everything on one hand.
