Why play Omaha?

[Swittie]

im not a lil interested in learning omaha, always only enjoyed holdem, 90% or more of games r holdem..... so, sorry but, fuck omaha.....

I think maybe I will try more omaha, mostly because im bored of regular.

I'm always lost points while trying Omaha. Same as today, have second nuts, but it is not enough can you fold 2nd nuts for pot bet ? NEVER, but how should I win ... waiting for NUTs each time? It is not worthy for me ...

I don't think it takes any more skill than holdem, nor is it really more complicate, per se. It's really that there are more ways a given hand can win and it's a bit harder to estimate your odds. That is, it's not more complicated because figuring your odds works the same way as in holdem, but the depth involved is greater. That said, I don't usually play Omaha because my mind is simple, so I have enough trouble keeping up with the odds in holdem. But I hear there is money to be made in O if you can stand the donk variance over the long term.

Omaha provides more action than some of the nitty holdem cash games

Omaha has weaker players in general.....BUT unfortunately the variance is higher. High stakes players frequently experience 1-4 million upswings and downswings

I play holdem only, never tried Omaha, it looks to complicated. Is Omaha something i should consider? Thanks.

It is always fun to try new forms of poker and gain experience! GL to you!

One thing about Omaha.... If you don't have the nuts, and there are two other players still in the pot. You should consider folding.

i like omaha. creates alot of action and lets me play fairly loose. although when you think you have the nuts sometimes you can be mistaken
