Stumbled across this page:
http://www.pokernews.com/strategy/omaha-poker/
I've only read a few articles, but it seems at least a bit helpful.

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 seem to get reamed everytime I play PLO heads up. I just put it down to lack of gamble and lack of experience (when is 1 pair good enough to felt)

From my limited heads up and very shorthanded PLO experience, many pots go to the aggressor when he holds a multiple non-nut draw (whether he is called or not). Top 2 and sets are solid, but it's harder to hit them than some sort of multidraw with suited "rags".
Hands like 4689 single suited become playable in position. You don't have to worry about getting stacked by higher flushes/straights nearly as often.

i feel the same way as far as the heads up portion. when i played a tourney, I knocked out one more person, then it was heads up. I had commanding chip lead, like..13k to 1k, guy was getting blinded out, but kept winning hand after hand catching straights on the flop. Eventually I beat him flopping a set of aces. but yeah...i hate heads up =/

let's go back a step -
Should we ever fold pre-flop? (trips?) In position? I typically play everything, raise half/call half, with the raising tilted towards the best hands (double suited, 4-straights, big pairs) and the worst (to steal blinds).
