Strategy for crazy online squid game
I recently played in a crazy online PLO squid game (unlimited bounty game). the blinds are 10/20/40, one squid is worth 120, the squid is paid from bankroll, not stack (means one needs to pay squid regardless, even he quits the game) min buyin is 2K, the stack can be retreated after 5K (whales like to keep stack short in general), game played 7 handed. Game is played in 1 hr limit, rake is 3% of winning, loser doesn't need to play. there are big whales there -- at least 2 whales/table vpip is 85%, and 60%-70% time goes to showdown. I am wondering if there is any edge in this type game. Is anyone familiar with this game? like strategy, how to know if there is any edge there? and how to quantify the edge? One thing is clear, this game generates ridiculous amount of rake to the house. Thanks in advanced

@Yevgen Ka Yeah, pay everyone 3BB at least, note that someone might have multiple squids say 3 squids, then one must pay him 3BBX3= 9BB. Also the squid payment is not from stack, it's from bankroll, other words, even if one allin and loses, he still owns the squids. Vpip more is mandatory in this game. 3 bets more is mandatory too.

This squid type game gains more and more popular in high limit private games. almost all high limit private NLH and short deck games are playing this way, and now it's expanding to PLO territory
