yeah would be good to have to change you play in the comp like going from no limit to pl and so on. i think the idea would be great

Not sure what you mean here...in tourneys, the betting limits (Limit/Pot/NL) do not change..AFAIK.
In general in the UK
HE..Usually No Limit or Pot Limit (in that order)
Omaha/Omaha Hi/Lo...Almost exclusively Pot Limit with occasional Limit (you might find No Limit, but I wouldn"t play it)
Stud/Razz/Stud 8..Limit
HORSE..Limit
In Vegas..if you can find anything other than Hold"Em (and you will have to search)..it will be Limit. You have to really search for Pot Limit games.
Then again, if you find an Omaha or Stud table, it"ll be full of local grinders...pretty low EV.

I have played a tournament that was LHE for the first 3 levels and NL from then on... it was in Vegas, and I didn"t like it - why the hell I entered it I don"t know - but it exists.
And whilst I would agree that your description of the Vegas action is correct for regular daily tournaments and cash games, you will usually find PLO and/or PLO8 in the big "festivals" i.e. WSOP, Binions Poker Classic, Venetian Deepstack Extravaganza.

I think this sound like the Luxor (or was it Mandalay Bay)..I recall hearing about it...and I agree...why?

Indeed, the Orleans ran something simliar during WSOP 2007 Final Week...but as you say. for day to day use...tough to find anything other than HE.

With regards to vegas, Caesars Palace now do a $75 pot limit omaha tourney at 5pm on mondays and a $100 omaha hi-lo one at 6pm on wednesdays (not sure if this is limit or pot limit).
