Re: Playing blinds and check-raising in Omaha8
One of the commandments of O8 is thou shall only play hands with 4 coordinated cards. I will usually play a decent 3-card hand from the small blind in an unraised pot. Then it's fit or fold on the flop. In the SB, assuming the BB doesn't raise, you are getting double the pot odds compared to having to call a full bet. In low limit games, I don't think that playing out of position if I hit the flop here is as important as it would be in holdem.
