Hi All:

I heard there's growing interest here in Omaha-8 which, let's face it, is by far the most elegant form of poker.

Thus, as if by magic, I appeared.

I'm looking forward to your commentary. I play alot of HORSE and always use Omaha8 to build my stack as opposed to Limit HE where I seem to lose ground more often than not. For some reason I see alot of loose play in the omaha part and I play only strong hands giving me a big advantage.

Thanks for the kind words, e1.

PokerRef - re: HORSE. Loose play in O8? Yeah in the forum game last night the table was playing VPIP=55. In a 30+3 HORSE it's not that extreme but not that far off. And since LO8 is a hand-value game just by playing tighter than e1 else will build your stack. Also most low-to-mid limit HORSE players seem unfamiliar with the idea of pulling hands in O8 so they blaze away and cost themselves money by blowing out the 2nd best hands they want in there to pay them off.
