Re: Short handed Omaha/8
In the past I have specialized in O8. I have played the 10 20 shorthanded on party ALOT. Recently, I have been playing more Holdem tourneys and PL omaha though.
I would say that these games can be very profitable. There are alot of very poor players. It is a fast paced game, and often times a LAG strategy can be the best.
As for hand selection, I really like the post above. You have the ability to play so many hands in this game. I have a VPIP of 65%, and I don't think that is too high at all for a 2-5 handed game.
As for headsup, you really have to get a read on your opponent. Some opponents you beat by LAG'in it up and buying pot after pot because they won't call. And others you just show down the winner over and over and let them take the small ones while you win the big ones.
