True,

Just starting to learn it, want to be a master of shorthanded NLHE and omaha someday. Do you coach? lololol. Still learning shorthanded NLHE really, Krantz can attest to that and the millions of hands I send him.

Didn't notice the PT screenshot was in omaha but I think my post still applies.

[True]

I play 30/23 in omaha and feel that it's as tight as I want to get.
