yes it's important, someone else wrote it in a book so it must be true". Have you ever even played in any of the games we are talking about?

Heck lets get back to the point position is important. And yes a lot of the best players/ authors have said its important and no I do not play in your games because its a crap shoot, any one who uses software to help them keep tabs on thsir opponents play etc PTO is a cheat as far as I am concened, try that crap in Vegas and you are in jail, I kid you not ( I understand you do not use the software so you are excluded from my comment). Plus the collusion, disconnections and bots are rampant.
Finaly you dont play in my live games at the Mirage/Orleans in las vegas. I am the asian in the cowboy hat playing the $5/10 game. See you in Vegas

Shoving preflop is the best thing to happen to the game of pot limit omaha/8 ever. It makes it an "action" game, and takes the emphasis away from the pasty faced nut peddlers. Yet at the same time, because let's be honest, I also want to win, allows me to win without being obvious I have a significant edge over the opponents.
