Default Re: Limit Omaha Hi - general advice wanted

This is gold.

Given what you've said, I've clearly been making mistakes in my starting hand selection. I have been folding a lot of suited ace hands because they included "danglers", or all 4 cards weren't connected. It appears this is too tight given how many players are seeing the flop in this game, and the value of nut flushes.

I have also been playing hands like the ones you advise against, e.g. 9987 and T987. Is the reason you don't play them simply because straight-making hands do not hit and hold up often enough?

One other question. How fast do you play when you flop a weak nut straight (with no other draws) in a multiway pot? E.g., you have 63 in the blinds on a 2-4-5 two-suited flop, or something similar. Is it better to see if the turn is a safe card before raising?
