they run a $3-6 omaha hi/lo where you get dealt 5 cards instead of 4, what kind of basic strategy adjustments should I make to beat that game?
It might be 5 card bingo I know, but damn it's a juicy game and I want to sit down sometime

You'll have to tighten up even more, but going for scoops will be even easier with 5 cards.

Some days it feels like I've been standing forever, waiting for the bank teller to return so I can cash in all these Sklansky Bucks.

I take it this is a short handed table. Otherwise youre going to have to start playing poker with 2 decks 
Holdem-{tighter}->Pineapple-{tighter}->Omaha-{tighter}->5 card Omaha(HI/LO)
I guess you just have to play tighter the more cards you start with. Thats going to be a really boring casino game 1 tabling unless you can make some friends and tell some jokes .
Im thinking about what the best hand would be. Probably something like A A K Q 2 ....actually I think Id prefer A A K 2 3 .Id try and play alot of 9TJQx type hands with a suit or 2 in a live game because i can imagine people will be marrying KKxxx. If they look like patient players though then its going to be hella boring.
