the thing about Omaha any hand becomes playable and that makes it dangerous but if you have experience and confident you can make profit especially if you are playing higher levels be careful when you try to bluff some people think that 2 pair is the nuts in omaha it is not holdem people

good day. please do update what your focus will be tomorrow, a day after tomorrow and even a day after the day after tomorrow. we here at brm forums have nothing to read beside bullsh1t, so definitely your daily updates are thing that's missing here to liven up our monotonic days.
I do not like to play Omaha Usually I play Unlimit Hold'em. Of course, every game someone interesting. But personally, I'm in Omaha only if necessary. For example a 10-games tournament freeroll

Omaha is a cool game and to be honest I find I have to think much harder when playing it as the permutations of wins, while the same in number, become more due to the fact that you have four cards in your hand, not withstanding you can only play 2. Anyway, made $4 in 10 minutes playing the other night and I haven't played Omaha for about three months....maybe tomorrow I should play some more!

Omaha is a very nice game,I like it,I play only a few times Omaha live with friends,online is easier you must not show after your cards.But when my live bankroll grow a little bit in this year maybe I give a try to play it in a casino. Horse is a very nice game too

Good luck for you in your omaha adventure. Personally I also prefer a good game of omaha over no limit holdem, because there is just a lot more action and you can play way more hands if you know what youre doing.

I would play omaha freeroll game when there is nothing else to play but there are a lot of game that i preferred.
In my like order is badugi, 2 7 SD, 5 cards draw, limit stud, limit stud HL, and 8 games.
Of course i play these game only in freeroll cause i am not good enough to play them for money I won ticket in almost all of them and still have some outstanding one.

I also like 2-7 and badugi, but I definitely like any kinds of Omaha (fixed limit, no limit, pot limit, high-low or five card omaha) even more, because you do not have to always watch the table to see if someone does not change his cards.

I have never played badugi,2-7 or most of them games but I enjoy Omaha but hardly ever play,I think you have money that you are quite prepared to lose.When I have played I see the good experienced players make it look very easy to take advantage of the novice players but it is definitely an exciting game.
I just leave this one here - I think he is the current living King of Omaha, Phil Ivey couldn't even smell the feet of this guy - he is just loving Omaha so much he never stops mentioning within game situations. I wonder hom many hours he spent playing cards...

I am not playing Omaha for money as well, because you are totally right. There are many Omaha experts knowing all the probabilities and so on who will eventually take a lot of money from you in the long run when you are a noob.
