Ok, So I'm new to Omaha (generally play holdem). I tend to play SNG as I can play lot of hands in for not much money.
I'm very hit and miss about winning hands an I am definitly struggling with valuing hands.
So my question is how do you value the starting hands. Do you give more value to a combination of starting cards or are pocket pairs still best.
Let me explain with an example, is 8,9,9,t better than K,K,8,2 as it has slight more outs i.e. I can hit 5,6,7 or j,q,k or another 9 (more if they are suited connectors). Or is the k,k still out in front because it beats an ten, or lower pocket pair?
Or do you raise up preflop and see what hits. I always seem to get a lot of callers doing this (probably caused by playing low buyin games) one of which always seems to outflop me.
