Double Board NLH Bomb Pots
What are the key ideas in NLH Double Board Bomb Pots?
These are very common on dealer changes in regular NLH Las Vegas games.

There have been a couple of threads. Might be too drunk to give a great guide now. Winging it...
1. It's very difficult to win both boards with two cards, so you either need everyone to fold or multiple people to come along to win money.
2. Almost everything you know from PLO DBBP is too nitty. Eg. On a single board top pair is often going to be good.
3. Because of #1 esp. ... it's a bad/boring game, and you should try to convince people to do almost anything else. I've torched money playing fish PLO[1] every round, but will happily tell everyone to GTFO with NLH DBBP. Easiest change is to a single board, but again literally anything is better IMO.
[1] Only heard of this in the UK, you get dealt 5 or 6 cards (depending on how many players are in) and you play a DBBP.
One or two ideas is not going to turn you into master of that game. I suggest you do some reading on Hi Low Stud or Omaha to get an in-depth look.
The majority of NLH 2x Bomb Pots are chops because of how passive the population plays, which is a mistake.
Consider how the cards in your hand block value combos on the board where you whiffed; if you flop good on one and block the nuts on the other, piling money in will often (enough) result in you taking it down.
