Can someone show me a pre-flop range for $1 and $2 buy-ins, in PLO mode?

There are GTO solvers in PLO. But the question is if they’re worth the money.💰

One of the reasons why it’s so hard to create a valuable preflop GTO chart is the sheer number of possible starting hands

With 4 cards instead of 2, there are 270,725 possible starting hands in PLO, compared to just 1,326 in Hold’em.

This means that it’s much harder to categorize hands and assign them to specific ranges in PLO.

As we know PLO is a postflop game unlike Hold’em. I don’t use solvers in PLO, so I can’t conclude whether they bare any value. Looking at my results they’re pretty much the same since GTO kicked in.

How is your take on GTO in PLO?
Forgive me for quoting myself. But as you can see preflop ranges are quite another beast in PLO. Add to this that most hands in PLO are determined postflop.
Preflop you must have several of these five properties:
1. Suitedness
2. Connectedness
3. Focus
4. Rank
5. Position
 
I only like to play Texas Hold'em. This PLO thing drives me crazy because I can't keep my logical thinking as well as I do in Texas Hold'em. For me, the fact that I have to use two cards from my hand is already a big limitation.
