Default Re: bad run of cards or playing worse?

One other thing that I want to mention that might help for those trying to "change their game" by reading books or advice here.

I think (this is just my opinion with no scientific backing whatsoever) that there are several different ways of playing winning Omaha.

The way that I play is based on my personality and skill level.

If I were to try a different set of playing standards (suggestions from a book) that was outside my comfort zone or contrary to my style of play, my results may vary even though you are trying to apply "correct" or someone else's "optimal" strategies.

For example, if I played the hands that Ribbo or Wintermute might feel comfortable playing, it might put me in a position that I am uncomfortable with and lead to a mistake here or there.

So, get back to what you feel comfortable with...whichever way you play.

Dave
