Why play Omaha?

[dudemanstan]

I play holdem only, never tried Omaha, it looks to complicated. Is Omaha something i should consider? Thanks.

Omaha is where graduates of hold-em end up. Most of the biggest cash games are now PLO. NLHE is still king for MTTs, but for ring games the easiest and loosest action can be found in PLO.

It is fun and something else to play.

You have the choice between omaha and omaha hi/low.
with omaha hi/low you have to watch everything

its not complicated, its a game that used to require a lot of skill and unfortunately has become home of the donks they like it cuz they can chase chase chase

[MIGO14]

very interesting game indeed, but I feel azreal is right regarding the donks...

[royalpat]

i like the hi lo omaha but so true many donks there but they are all over

[Ciulan]

You should play omaha, when You will be better in holdem

I think IWASLION sums it up best on what PLO has become and the progression it is from NLHE.

[quinnyjc]

where do you guys play that there are alot of donks.

If you have a site like juicy/lock that pays rakeback on dealt method i prefer omaha over holdem... you still get same donk beats in both from time to time but extra larger pots helps me in my bonus chasing goals. I am never trying to take someone elses money, only the house, but if they want to give it to me then i will glady accept.
