How to get into non-HE poker

[MikeRand2000]

Hey all -

I've gone through about 100 NLHE sit-n-gos and 10k LHE ring hands and would like to start learning a couple of other games. I realize that I have a lot to learn about HE but I'm just kind of interested in Stud and Omaha.

A couple of questions:

1) If I do start out in a new microlimit game, which of the following makes sense to start with?

Stud
Stud H/L
Omaha
Omaha H/L

One part of me says to learn Omaha because of its relative similarity to hold'em. Another part says to learn Stud so that I can learn how to evaluate exposed cards (and pot odds, etc.).

2) Would you recommend rotating between NLHE, LHE, and the new game as I learn? Or would you recommend puting NLHE and LHE on the shelf for a while while I focus on the new game?

Thanks,

Mike
