Default Re: Farha on Omaha - Anybody read it yet?

I read SS2 PLO at Borders too since I didn't want to shelve out 60AUD for 40 pages (already got SS1). Now I only started playing PLO (jumped straight into 200PLO) about 2 months ago and learnt pretty quickly. I read this book hoping that it'd have some cool insights but I can truly say that I learnt nothing from it. If you play for about 1 hour you quickly realise what Lyle says: that you need to be careful without the nuts, about chasing draws on paired flops etc.

The only thing I do remember reading and taking a mental note of was (paraphrased):

'Check behind the nut flush sometimes on turn when you make it so you'll get paid off on the river'.

I remember this because I didn't really agree with it but I guess it's something you can add to your arsenal for sure (you'd prob work that out too anyway).
