If you play Pot Limit Omaha (or you’re an NLHE convert flirting with variance), this one’s worth your time. Fernando “JNandez” Habegger jumped on stream and battled 4 Card PLO and 5 Card PLO cash on CoinPoker—no HUD, just clean decision-making at PLO200–PLO1000. My job here: give you the watch link, the juicy hands (with quick, usable lessons), and a simple next step plan with PLO Mastermind and the PLO Trainer so you actually improve, not just binge.
What to expect from the 2-hour video
Two hours of practical PLO thinking. Stakes bounce between PLO200, PLO500, and late PLO1k, mixing 4 Card PLO and 5 Card PLO. You’ll see:
- Live range building without a HUD. He talks through blockers, redraws, SPRs, and when a hand is better as a call vs. raise—especially in 5 Card PLO where “side components” make or break your equity realization.
- Turn and river focus. He says it outright: the river is where edges actually show up. If you’re a “flop-first” player, you’ll pick up why turn checking or small stabbing sets up profitable rivers.
- Multiway discipline. A recurring theme: don’t torch money “protecting” medium-strength hands into strong calling ranges. (You’ll see why those bet-folds hurt more than they help.)
- Natural crossovers for PLO Trainer nodes: BTN vs BB single-raised pots, BB vs c-bet defense, and 3-bet pots with low SPRs—both 4 Card PLO and 5 Card PLO.
TL;DR: Watch with a notebook. Then reproduce the key spots inside PLO Trainer for 30 minutes. That’s how you bank real gain from a stream.

PLO Mastermind: turn the stream into real progress
Binge-watching is fun. Winning is better. Here’s the quick plan:
- Step 1 — Pick one lane. Choose 4 Card PLO or 5 Card PLO for this week. (Yes, you can learn both. No, you shouldn’t study both at the same time.)
- Step 2 — Watch 2 targeted lessons in PLO Mastermind. Use the Pro library to match the stream’s exact nodes: single-raised BTN vs BB, 3-bet pots at low SPR, multiway OOP defense.
- Step 3 — Drill them in the PLO Trainer. 300 hands per node, with focus on turn/river plans.
- Step 4 — Play a short session on CoinPoker (more on that below), tag hands, and re-drill the mistakes.

Why CoinPoker works for this type of session
You want a room where Pot Limit Omaha runs—4 Card PLO and 5 Card PLO—with enough tables to cherry-pick learning spots. That’s CoinPoker: steady PLO traffic, fast software, and lineups where discipline plus a plan shows up on the cashier.
- Good for newcomers: Lower-stakes 4 Card PLO games run often, and you’ll find plenty of c-bet or turn-honest opponents to practice block bets.
- Good for NLHE converts: You’ll get real volume without eight-tabling chaos; enough hands to feel variance but not drown in it.
- Good for grinders: Rakeback/promos come and go; keep your eye on pool softness first.
Key takeaways
- River edges win PLO. Build lines to arrive on rivers with hands that bet thin, block, or bluff believably.
- Multiway ≠ protection land. In 5 Card PLO, “protecting” mid-hands into strong ranges is how you donate. Keep ranges wide; realize equity.
- Side cards are everything in 5-card. Your blockers decide whether you’re freerolled or freerolling.
- SPR drives commitment. Dry boards + low SPR in 4 Card PLO can justify shove lines with AA that look “naked.”
- Study loop: Watch → pick a node → PLO Trainer reps → 60–90 minutes play → tag → re-drill.
- Platforms: Learn on PLO Mastermind, drill with PLO Trainer, get reps on CoinPoker.
Conclusion
JNandez doesn’t do gimmicks here—just steady, profitable Pot Limit Omaha decisions across 4 Card PLO and 5 Card PLO lineups on CoinPoker. If you’re a low/mid-stakes grinder or an NLHE convert, this is the perfect combo: watch the stream, copy the nodes into PLO Trainer, and put in two short sessions. Keep it simple, keep it honest, and yes—keep it on the river.
FAQs
Start with 4 Card PLO. The structures are cleaner and equity edges are clearer. Once you can explain your river plan in common BTN vs BB spots, add 5 Card PLO for a week and compare.
Pick two hands from the video (e.g., final multiway all-in + a turn barrel spot). Rebuild the spot in PLO Trainer: define positions, stack sizes, and ranges. Drill 200–300 decisions. Then play one short session on CoinPoker and tag hands that match.
Over-betting “for protection” on turns, especially in 5 Card PLO multiway pots. You fold out air, keep in the hands that crush you, and walk into raises with no redraws.
Two things: entering bloated, multiway single-raised pots with bad suits, and wimping out on dry, low-SPR flops where shoving is best. Build a “AA checklist” in PLO Trainer and drill low-SPR trees.
Nope. PLO Mastermind gives you the frameworks and examples; PLO Trainer wires them into muscle memory. Use both.
