Re: Pot Limit Omaha 8 by Steve Ruddock
I think that advice is GENERALLY ok for a new PLO8 player.
I disagree with his "playable hand" selection as I believe in a passive game many more hands are playable that can be discarded for a small bet when they don't connect...but I can see this to be a basic guide for a new player.
I THINK I disagree with his comment about trapping opponents with a hand like A A 2 from early position. I have tried slow playing this hand but just generally realize I don't know where I stand post flop and it gets me in trouble.
I think the best way to handle the A A 2 hand from early position is to raise early and often, bring along the other A 2 dealt and get the 3/4 heads up.
Those are my thoughts.
