Default Re: Preflop PLO Advice

Here's a repost of my previous thoughts on preflop PLO designations. This would be considered a very tight preflop selection:

Hand rankings are best done in groups. My personal selection, not based on any Omaha books, is:

Top hand can easily be placed on AAJTds.

Group 1, the best hands, are AA(paint)(paints)ds, KK(paint)(paint)ds, any four paint cards doublesuited, or AAKK and AAQQ.

Group 2, any run of cards higher than 4. 5678, 89TJ, etc. ds preferred.

Group 3 is any 3 card run (one gappers allowed) that has nut flush backing, or high pair backing, so QQT9, JJT9, or KKJ9 for instance. Or A5s67, or ATs89, or A6s78 for example.

Beyond that I dont play much else, unless its AA rag rag and I can go close to all in on the flop against 1 or maybe 2 opponents tops (which is done via a huge preflop reraise of course)
