what the hell is wrong with 5-5-2-2
ive played lots of omaha and ill see the flop with this hand form any posiiton for the bring in, and theres a good chance id call a raise cold with it PF, and id DEFINATLEY call a PF rasie with it if i thought the guy had aces when he raised.

At the lower limits as I have frequently said, you can make more errors of any kind including hand selection, simply because the level of play overall is so bad. Thus you can be making lots of mistakes but less than the other players and still come out ahead. The only reason bottom set can be profitable at lower limits is because other players with go broke with any 2 pair or chasing 8 out draws to the river headsup.

But at the higher limits, bottom set will get you busted long term, because most of the action you will get, will be action you don't want. And players with AA sometimes have 88 to go with it when that seemingly sweet flop of 832 comes along for you, and you think they are just dumping their stack with unimproved aces.
