I play both. Each has its own negatives.

For omaha, you can outdraw or be outdrawn because of so many outs. Meaning, variance and bad beats are so high.

NL Hold'em. When I first started playing poker it was hold'em and ever since I fell in love with it. If I try to play something different it doesn't feel the same or is not quite as fun. Its no better poker game than the classic texas hold em in my opinion!

I love NLHE and PLO8. I'm the greatest at both, but I prefer PLO8 to reduce variance. Too many people suck at PLO8.

MTT , SNG -6 max

Why I fell in love with MTT - you can play the game at no great limits to assess the force of arms and understand the position you're in coca nahodeshsya)) The main thing to master strategy MTT
The CNG strategy differs from the MTT but also really like

No Limit is my favorite but Omaha Hi/Lo can be a very entertaining game!

If you understand how to play both games and know the differences between them, you will tend to win more money at PLO since the number of people who overvalue their hands is more prevalent. The game of Omaha allows you to play for much bigger pots and can offer much better drawing odds than Holdem.

Usually I prefer holdem because I'm much better at it. But sometimes I have more of a desire to play Omaha. And since I've become decent at it there are times I can find a better Omaha game to play in than a Holdem game so in those times I definitely prefer Omaha!

I also prefer holdem because I'm a way better at it than in omaha. I have never really played omaha cash games. Only some freerolls and free money tournaments, but it seems to be much more difficult to calculate pot odds in omaha than in holdem. At least for me :)

Only holdem. But to be fair, I never give at least try to other games like omaha, razz or anything else. I played only omaha few times before (by accident :D ), but it just didnt catch me like holdem. And other games I didnt even try :)

I prefer NLHE, but you do get LOTS of action in PLO.

If you flop a house in PLO, you get paid off big time. Not so much in NLHE, typically. :p
