Default Re: Adjusting from pot-limit o8 to limit o8

Tuttufin - In terms of strategy and tactics, fixed-limit Omaha-8 and pot-limit Omaha-8 are like night and day.

For example, getting quartered in pot-limit can be a disaster while getting quartered in fixed-limit is generally no big deal.

From what I have seen, pot-limit Omaha-8 plays more like pot-limit Omaha-high, or even no-limit Texas hold 'em, than fixed-limit Omaha-8.

Full ring, fixed-limit Omaha-8 seems a breed apart.

I'd say start out slowly and cautiously. That's at least a safe approach. And don't make the mistake of assuming someone who doesn't raise much before the flop is not aggressive or doesn't know the game.
