Omaha is rising a lot in popularity. Good Omaha players can benefit a lot from the recent influx of Hold Em players. Most general poker books have a chapter or two on Omaha but this book in particular will really help you improve your Omaha skills, be it Limit, PLO or Hi-Lo. It will show you how to defeat weak Hold Em players who overplay their aces and by proving hom important the old saying is: Tight is Right, Tighter is Better. This is not a book for the beginning poker player but those who have played for a few years and want to learn to play at a higher level will benefit from this book, I can definately recommend it.

Experienced players, this book will help refine your skills
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
This book is perfect for the experienced poker players who want to refine their skills. Not recommended for beginners. Take it from multiple-pro-tournament winners T.J. Cloutier and Tom McEvoy: Starting hand selection and flop reading are the two most important skills to develop for becoming a good Omaha and Omaha Hi-Lo Eight-or-Better player. They give you lots of example hands and flops, and explain what to avoid ("danglers") and what to seek out ("Acey-deucey"). A little jargony, but the detailed information as well as Cloutier's hilarious old-school stories make up for that. It really helped me understand the various incarnations of Omaha and gave me a fighting chance against my buddies on poker night!
Excellent introduction to all forms of Omaha
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
This book helped me understand the basic strategy behind Omaha, and was very useful in improving my play. One notable feature is it covers all forms of Omaha - High/Low 8 or better, High only, and pot-limit. Reading about the different variations inspired me to try Omaha High only instead of my usual game [Omaha High/Low 8 or better], and it turned out to be fun and a nice change of pace. The co-authors are both world champions and it shows in their advice and suggestions.
