I have been playing Omaha High Pot Limit a lot lately and I am getting killed with AAxx preflop. However, this could simply be the result of either standard deviation or bad play and I am not sure which.
My strategy has been to limp, hope to get raised, and then reraise like hell if given the opportunity.
I have been doing this since I saw the players at the World series two years ago do this in the big pot limit game (e.g, I saw devilfish and another player both put in about 50k a piece before the flop. Devilfish with AA doublesuited anf the other player AA, 7,9 of a different suit). Also, Bob Ciaffone's Pot Limit Book and TJs book both seem to advocate this type of play.
Is this strategy correct and are AA that big of favorite to warrant such a move?
Also, I dont raise if the other two cards are completely disconnected. However, I will with a hand like AA,Q, 6suited with an A).
Any thoughts greatly appreciated.
