Default Re: How do you avoid becoming a nut peddler in Omaha?

Serious question. I've been silently reading hand posts here on and off and a lot of the advice advocates very tight open raising ranges and check/folding a ton. Not to say that is what is advocated in every post but I see a trend. How do I avoid becoming a nut peddler, staying creative, and make money in omaha? Are these mutually exclusive?

Remember that if you are going to play looser and more aggressive, do it in position. It makes all your decisions much easier postflop. Position allows you to pick up a lot of small pots on the flop.

If you see that no one wants the pot on the flop and you have top pair with a decent kicker (a hand you might not bet OOP), you can confidently bet it in position against one or two villains. If you are called and don't improve on the turn, check behind and get a free card. Many times you can see a free showdown.

Position position position.
