Yeah maybe I should have elaborated on that one, you aren't playing to hit your flush the double suited is essentially added value for say a set or big reraise battle on the flop where you may be a lot more comfortable getting in with your set knowing you have a flush redraw etc, but they are the hands that you make money with I still stand by that people suspect you are week more often on a 972 board when your holding 99 and they have say a weak over like qq as opposed to some scary j 10 A board etc.

Oh another quick tip hands like kk rags say KK79 even double suited you are basically playing to hit a set 90% of the time then folding to any bet big enough. Same goes for all face card pockets

Read all the suggestions last night, went to .02/.05 plo table with $5, left with $15. Used Rckt's sugg. played a lot of hands, then tight after flop, using a lot of coldcard's suggestions, liked the one about placing small bet after flp if there's 2 suited cards to see who has a hand and who has a flush draw. Was actually able to bluff someone when flush did not hit. Thanks for all the advice, going to keep practicing this, as I'm sure higher limit games will not be so easy.

I hate omaha, I never really got into it much...always NLHE. I think I might open my range of games played and start taking up omaha more.

I suck at omaha usually when I do well in it I hit a lot of high flushes and full houses

good advice coldcard, I like the 6789 double suite high pairs don't work I only play hands with more than one way to hit.

I like to play pot limit Omaha, but the variance is much higher. I like the action on the PLO tables.
