Greetings,
I am very new to Omaha and found a regular game near me playing $1/2 NL Omaha Hi/Holdem' round by round switching games every revolution. The game is $1/2 but plays more like $2/$5 or $3/$6. I have a good holdem' game but im new to omaha and am enjoying the action it brings.
Many of the guys I play with are very loose, playing almost every hand regardless of a preflop raise or position. Standard preflop raises are anywhere between $5 and $25. Also Straddles and restraddles are frequest with straddlers often popping it more before the flop.
The game consists of many LAG type players and calling stations. A couple NITS and some ABC players. I would put money that many players are making many mistakes.
Im hoping I can get some advice on how to exploit a $1/2 game that plays more like $2/5 with a couple maniacs and mostly everyone playing way too many hands. I feel like flush/straight draws are all treated equally regardless if they're drawing to the nuts or not.
My preflop game in omaha is non-existant. In holdem' I play very TAG. In omaha, I play too cautious because Im not exactly sure of a good preflop hand. I almost never raise preflop and am very cautious betting my hands as it seems people call no matter what. Its almost comparible to a play chips table on facebook.
I'm beginning to get a grip on what makes a good omaha hand and am just curious how you guys would approach a game described as I have above. I feel like its just a gold mine waiting to be exploited, but I don't understand omaha enough to do it. Thus I come to you.
