It depends.

I think Omaha 8 is on the rise. I'm primarily a NL holdem cash game player but I'm getting so burnt out on it lately. Plus everyone is learning how to play now so it's getting less and less profitable. The last few nights I've played Omaha 8 like 2-3 tables at a time and showed an easy profit. And I'm learning as I play.

It seems to me this game is super soft. Nobody knows when to raise. It's comical (this was .5/1 limit ring albeit). It seems like most play for the low hand, and so on a flop like 9JK, there is already a lot of dead $$ in the pot.

Plus, playing for high hand strength seems profitable. If three people see the river and you have nut high, you can gain bets b/c the other two will split half the pot while you take the other half.
