PLO games generate bigger pots than NLHE and the game is growing strongly in popularity which offers good opportunities for people who know what they're doing as Slotboom and Hollink certainly do. Until recently the few books there were on PLO focused on the full-ring game however these days 6-max is where it's at and so different strategies are required. Buy this with the Jeff Hwang books to put yourself ahead of the game.

Exellent framework for evolving to a winning player 4 Aug 2009
By Petter Saure - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
This book require a lot of work ,and reflection from the reader.
For those willing to put in the hours, thinking about the many consepts in the book,and how these consepts are tied together,this book will probably be very rewarding. This is not a beginners book per se. Like in his previous book on Omaha, Slotboom puts a lot of emphasis on the different size of your buy in.What is the optimal buy in, related to table position,where you sit in relation to different types of opponents etc. His "simple" approach, on how to avoid difficult decisions on the expensive streets when out of position is brilliant. All in all a very good and thoughtprovoking text on Shorthanded PLO.

Solid methods for PLO 11 Aug 2009
By T. Kap - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
It is not a punishment to read this book. I like the lively style of these writers very much. The method, being presented, is new for PL Omaha, but practical and easy to understand and easy to play. The examples help a lot too. Although this book is written by top-professional poker players, it is still no problem to master the concepts, when you have some basic knowlegde about odds and outs. This book is a "must have" for every serious PL Omaha player! Furthermore, when you want to play for high stakes, you cannot afford to miss reading the high stakes hands from Full Tilt described by Rob Hollink.
Desperately in need of editing 19 April 2011
By Caribbeing - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
It's clear Rolf understands PLO very well, and comes at it with some unique ideas which have resulted in a lot of success for him. However (and this was true of his first book as well) he has a very difficult time expressing his ideas clearly.

If you read the text, you'll often be faced with very, very long paragraphs that go on and on. It's difficult to absorb because you're literally faced with a giant block of text with all sorts of digressions and side comments. The book really needs to be broken into a lot of smaller chapters, each tightly focused on a single idea. And each chapter needs to be broken into smaller sections, with clear headings, so you know exactly what's being discussed. More whitespace would really help comprehension, too.

Worth reading if you play PLO (especially at non-micro stakes), but it's a bit of work to get value out of it. Also, please be aware that some of his short stack recommendations aren't really useful if you're playing at a low stakes level, because the rake you pay wipes out any gains you might make from dead money in the pot, etc.
