Pokerati Game 2.0

Fans of low-stakes PLO in Las Vegas rejoice. The Pokerati Game looks to get back into regular action, kicking off tomorrow, Thursday, 7pm, at The Palms poker room.

We had a good run at the Hard Rock … convincing a Vegas casino that a time-charge isn\’t necessary to make running-it-twice work in low-stakes games … and culminating with an NLH/PLO tourney in Matt Savage\’s (short-lived?) Detox Poker Series. Good things were happening, but I guess when your CEO offs himself (after dropping $850mil days before worldwide financial collapse) and security escorts your poker director\’s corporate big-boss off-premises with Gaming enforcement officials watching … well, it doesn\’t matter how many turns and rivers you get to see to recognize it\’s time to move on.

In the off-time you\’ve probably been jonesing for the action Pokerati provides, and I\’ve read seven pages of a new PLO book … also finally figured out how to condense the rules into something less than a page, so we\’re back, or at least will be soon — starting with the relaunch prelaunch Thursday eve.

Click here to see how we play it … become a fan of 1/2 NLH/PLO round of each on Facebook for regular updates, and add @PalmsPokerRm to your Twitter follows for, um, I\’m not sure yet. I do know @PokerGuyJoeV is the new poker room manager there — charged with reinvigorating an architecturally challenged room with 3/6 limit games that don\’t quite jibe with the made-for-MTV vibe felt elsewhere in the casino.
