6 card PLO 5/5/10 (rake 5% cap £50)
Is this game beatable with mixture of pros and recs (half/half)
Sometimes Β£20 straddle so then its 2.5bb per hand not 5bb
It feels beatable but not sure can someone help
please
Many thanks

Depends how deep is the game usually.
If the recs are short stacked mostly, it will be hard to beat in this rake .
Very dangerous format. With 6 cards its hard to push that much of an equity advntage pre-flop, especially in a loose game.
Host will often stake players or something similarly shady. So the risk of getting cheated or colluded against somehow will often distort any edge you think you have.
When home games sound shady, they normally are. This is a ridiculous greedy structure, and host is normally not going to want to keep winning players on it, unless he needs seats filled.
5bb cap is insanely high
Need massive whales losing
$50 x 20 hands per down
30 min per down
Theoretically up to 2k coming off the table every hour
5% is saving you as itβs normally 10% so if pots arenβt always massive itβs a bit less of the table but you are winning less hourly.
You need at least 2k starting stacks n everyone like 10k deep by end of night with egregious punters to beat this. Iβd sit it out
