Calibration - knowing where you are at post flop, switching from a game where "no one ever makes a big hand" to one where "someone always has it".

The hardest adjustment moving from NLHE to PLO is understanding that having a strong hand doesn’t mean you are always ahead. In PLO, equities run much closer, draws are everywhere, and you need to think more about board textures and nut hands.
