Haha, the days when people used to be terrible at poker...
I look forward to your stories. I hope you keep in mind that it's very different nowadays and don't give people the impression that they can learn some basic strategy and go soak up a bunch of free money.
You are absolutely right about the face of poker today. If I can enlighten some from being a fish all his poker life, then I feel I have accomplished something. I still play in California and Nevada poker rooms. The games are ever changing and for that reason, I have focused more on PLO the last two years rather than playing NLH.

Is PLO more fishy?
I know I don't really understand it well, and get confused during actual play, so I stick to NLH.

There are excellent books on PLO. Jeff Hwang's PLO book series is a good place to start. When you first venture into PLO I recommend buying in for the minimum. When you have a premium starting hand don't be afraid to commit your stack and let the cards run out. PLO is a high variance game and the nuts get cracked much more than in NLH. So you need a good temperament and not go on tilt.
