Quality limit O/8 Discussion
Over on bobby_the_worm's journal, I'm involved in a thoughtful and good discussion about playing a large limit O/8 pot with a likely drawing-dead high draw and a counterfeitable nut low draw. The discussion will bore to sleep all you HE-only players, but if you have an interest on what we Omaha-holics get so excited about that “four card game”, take a look.
High/low split games introduce some of the most complicated poker decisions you can find, because the naked aggression that can run over an HE game with ease just doesn't work here, and you have to really think through what is going on to make the right decisions. If you are a card-playing connoisseur and haven't tried learning some O/8, you really should. (Did I ever mention that contract bridge players tend to love O/8 the most? Someday, I've got to find a bunch of people who want to learn contract bridge and play it for money. That game must be enjoyable. :)
