Re: Triple Draw Is Evil
Any type of loball draw, especially the limit form, is the most fair game; if you do not play theoretically correctly you have no chance. 3-draw shorthanded is like limit holdem shorthanded but...

Re: Should I learn Omaha?
At omaha one does not need to be as exact as at holdem; one is playing more on the lines of the feel of hand strengths. That makes it either interesting to you or it does not; that's omaha (omaha-8...

Re: Raising from the Big Blind ?
One can always raise for value vs. any number of opponents shorthanded. Though it's player dependent too. The only spot where I often check is when I am exactly at the BB and I have exactly two...
