For me pot-limit omaha is by far my favourite form of poker to play at the cash tables. In fact, outside of tournaments, I would say that 99% of my online play is spent playing pot-limit Omaha cash games. I will play wherever there is a good game, generally at $10/$20 or $25/$50.

With the huge interest generated by the $50,000 World Series of Poker H.O.R.S.E. event, more and more nolimit players are trying their hands at pot-limit Omaha – a game that at first appearance looks similar to hold’em. But whilst it’s certainly true that Omaha and hold’em share many similar principles, they are very different games and simply rushing in is a recipe for disaster – and one that I’ve noticed many players make before.
