Omaha Hi
FR vs 6max debate
Since exploitaion is much less a factor in Omaha shouldn't we be choosing Full Ring games over 6max games where the same % of players seeing the flop does seem to exist. Therefore, 5 seeing a flop instead of 3 means more dead money, larger pots, and much larger edges. The pros of 6max are obviously positional advantages as well greaters hands/hr raising one's hourly winrate.
This is what I've learned so far at Omaha
1. Hand selection can make you a large winner at the lower stakes.
2. This shit is swingy as hell
3. Middle and bottom set are probably my two biggest losers
4. Having a hidden straight draw can make you a lot of money against unaware opponents who can only see suits.

1. FYP: *all stakes up to 2000PL*
2. yep
3. but they're also big winners. I get stacked with middle set frequently. I do play bottom set very very cautiously
4. how hidden? I find straight draws are good only if it's a 13+ outs on a rainbow flop, or in combination with a FD (preferably NFD or 2NFD), or as a redraw to a hand that's likely to be best already like KQJT on a QT6 flop or the weaker KKJ9 o na T83 flop or the incredibly strong 9987 on a A96 flop.

I mean hitting your gin card that doesn't complete a flush can be very valuable against players with sets.
Hey, help me out with my fullring question or did I answer it myself?

read your thread on PLO sites
I mentioned that a weakness with FTP was their lack of 9-max tables.
And yes, I play FR exclusively and I think FR > SH for PLO high. I can play SH PLO8 because of game selection reasons, and the fact I have a lot more skill at PLO8
