Sorry klash i did not see your post so did not go see your table.
I said before that i did not like tis game and i was no good at it. Last time i played it made final table for something around $36.00T
And today i just finished in 14th place for $2.80T i wont be able to say that i dont like the game anymore. Made a mistake just before that cost me many chips could have done better.

I am so stupid. I fully intended to play the PartyPoker blog game last night, but couldn't see the game registering for its usual seven o'clock start....stupid me forgot that of course sometimes it's omaha and the mobile game doesn't support Omaha. I really must remember this in future.

I nearly forgot as well and when I went to the PP blog page I couldn't find the password for ages......it said it would give clues but all I saw was a pokerfest advert.....15 minutes of searching the internet ,PP twitter and facebook I think "Oh the password could just be pokerfest".......what a dumbass I am . As for Hi Lo.....I just went for the Hi and it worked out not too bad and went out flush V flush. Pinotte.....You were doing pretty damn well every time I looked,maybe if you spent some time on Omaha you could be very good at it.

In omaha hi/lo you either gonna do very good or very bad There are many players that only chase the low hands, betting with them from preflop till river. The best thing is to start shoving when you have both hi and lo. There you can "eat" some money from splitting

That is the key. Your opening hands in Hi/Lo should be good enough for both pots. It's not rocket science - omaha have many starting hands/positions but playing simple TAG is really good strategy in it.

very good game of omaha but its hard to win simultanously because of to many possible cards to come so as to many players calling .not like holdem that has bluff strategy but goodluck any one of you.

I find Omaha a really good game to play and it is definitely a game where your hand changes so quickly.I did notice that the Lo hands did not feature very often.I think Omaha to learn with real money could be very costly for naive hold em players so probably not for me.

In the tournament i made two mistake that were very costly. These mistake i made because i am not a regular player of Omaha specially HI/LO. The first one i have the low for sure with 1 2 3 4 5 but the big stack bet was so big with 3 suited card on the board that i forgot the low thinking just about the high and a folded loosing the chips i had in i could have split and recover. The second one the board had A A and 7 7 again i forgot that i need two of my cards for the hand and though that i had a full i called with my 3 aces and small kicker and lost to a bigger kicker.

Yeah, I was constantly outplayed in it on low stakes tables at the old Unibet site - by UK players. Was still fun though.

Hey Bowie.....you may have played me at Unibet That was one of the first sites where I played Omaha on a regular basis......until I realised that winning and losing a 100BB full stack every few hands was not for me.
