Run a weekly cash game, usually NLHE .25/.50, $60 buy ins up to $100 when average stack is 200bb. Usually $2500 on the table for the night, swings of -$300 to +1000 are standard. Plays like a small $1/2. Also have occasional $2-4/3-6 HORSE game with smaller swings.
Last weeks mixed game I had a couple guys asking about PLO. In 15 years of hosting I think we've played maybe 2 orbits of Omaha that wasn't fixed limit and Hi/Low. I've heard the game plays much bigger, and my very limited experience confirms that. I don't want anyone getting out of their comfort zone, as far as win/loss goes. I've hit a real sweet spot with most of my regulars, and I don't want (relative) fortunes crossing the table.
What are some ways I can keep the game under control? I really don't want to drop the blind structure. I mean, I could go single .25 blind or two .25 blinds. I'm thinking more like limiting rebuys to 100bb for the entire session, but I see people not liking that when stacks get deep.
Any other thoughts?
