OMAHA HIGH-LOW by Bill Boston

I just picked this book up at Borders today. If anyone here has read this one feel free to leave a comment. So far I realize that I see way more flops than I should. (If there's no ace fold, unless ur in bb)

Is that the one with all the statistics in it? It's a decent supplement, but not the best book to read first about the game. I'd recommend Cloutier's book on Championship Omaha and Super System series first.

I find that the best poker strategy is on the web, you can gather multiple views and use the ones that best fit your playing style. Omaha 8 is a game that I think people play very poorly in both cash games and tournaments, so its not a surprise that you play more starting hands then you should, most players do anyway (and not just in Omaha 8, lol). I agree with skoldpadda though, when in doubt use Super System.

I have read two of his books and find the information very helpful. The stats in his book are based on $10-20 limits, and may be a little confusing when viewing negative hands as they indicate a small negative ($1-$2) and the reason is these hands are not played except in the blind and only win when there are no callers. This is mentioned, but easily overlooked. If you master the information in his book, I think you will be repaid your investment in your first live action game. It is very good as a reference to compare one hand against another, and you can see the difference in hand value when a particular hand is suited or double-suited. You made a good investment.
Good luck
