i don't think it exists

but i hear a lot of good things about "How Good is Your PLO?"

How good is your PLO is great for learning how to play in looser wilder games. It teaches a more aggro approach to omaha

The best book for those new to the game is Pot Limit Omaha: The Action Game by Ciaffone. You can also read some online at www.winningonlinepoker.com (http://www.winningonlinepoker.com)

These are the books about PLO I know about (and have):

"How Good Is Your PLO?" by Stewart Reuben. Very loose high stake deep money PLO between regulars at the Victoria Casino in London. Interesting reading made in quiz form but the game has little to do with shallow money online PLO.

"Super System 2" Nice chapter by Lyle Bernan. My favourite, covers most of the PLO concepts.

"Omaha Holdem Poker" by Bob Ciaffone. A rather thin book that also covers other forms of Omaha. Written like small essays.

"Improve Your Poker" by Bob Ciaffone. Includes som PLO.

"Pot-Limit And No-Limit Poker" By Bob Ciaffone and Stewart Reuben. Same as above.

Also read what Rolf Slootbom writes about PLO. The articles can be found at pokerpages.com

See ya at the tables!

I prefer looking online for good Omaha resources, especially if they deal with playing the micro-limits.

Rolf Slotboom is a great Omaha writer, although a lot of the things he discusses don't apply when playing bad players with shallow stacks (i.e. PLO100 and smaller on most sites).

www.bet-the-pot.com (http://www.bet-the-pot.com) has two excellent (and long) articles dealing with beating small-stakes PLOH online that are worth reading every so often.

www.pokernews.com (http://www.pokernews.com) has a weekly series of Omaha articles aimed at beginner to borderline-intermediate players that cover all four of the popular Omaha variations

www.playwinningpoker.com (http://www.playwinningpoker.com) has some good Omaha resources...

There's another site that's good too, but the name escapes me right now.
