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

FWIW running it once, twice or hundred times makes no difference EV wise.
I can show you the calculations, but only if someones interested in it.
When Farha really says that he only runs it twice when he's a underdog than his math skills suck, and it's probably more superstitions.

In my opinion, Bob Caiffone's book is a good place to start, after that you can read Farha's book which will give you more ideas on different Omaha plays. Then you can try to read Secrets of Professional Pot Limit Hold'em by Rolf Slotboom which I consider the best Omaha High book in the market. This book has some excellent examples and also a quiz at the end of the book.

I flipped through it at my local Barnes & Noble.

I don't know anything about Omaha except that it's an evil game invented by witches.

I read the bit about him intentionally folding a +EV hand so he could be ahead for the night and how this was "good money management".

At this point, I started getting flashbacks of reading John Patrick's books on Craps or whatever.

Did.
Not.
Want.
