Is Omaha H/L the new diet poker?

Great post on Pokerati regarding energy drinks and their frighteningly close comparison to poker. I've been playing a lot of Omaha on line, and last night I (accidently) played in an PL Omaha high/low tourney (never thought there was such a thing), finishing second. I think Omaha, particularly PL, is growing in popularity online, reflecting the already rampant popularity among the gamble-happy euros. I've noticed that sugar free red bull is ALSO gaining popularity. Coincidence? I think not, especially when one considers the money and politics. etc.

  1. I've been thinking about the correlation between 7-card stud and and Bottle Caps, the soda-flavored discs of sugary goodness. Think about it: both are old-school, both, uh...I'm still working on the particulars, but you understand.
