false 2537502 1 <P> <b>Are You Ready for the Next Wave of Poker?</b> <P> If you've never tried Pot-Limit Omaha, you're missing out on the most exciting, most lucrative cash game around. Omaha has long been the most popular form of poker in Europe, and now it's spreading like wildfire throughout North America. The reason is simple: Omaha offers more action and bigger pots than Texas Hold'em. Isn't it time you got in on it? <P> Whether you're a cash-game professional or poker hobbyist--and whether you play live or online--this book will arm you with a winning big-play strategy that's easy to master even if you've never played Omaha before. You'll discover the subtle distinctions that set Omaha above other games <P> Key topics include: <P> - The Big Play Objectives <BR> - The Power of the Big Draw <BR> - Straight Draws and Starting Hand Construction <BR> - Playing the Position Game <BR> - Limit Omaha Hi/Lo and Pot-Limit Omaha Hi/Lo (this is the only book in the market that discusses these games) <P> Complete with practice situations and hand quizzes, this is the most comprehensive Omaha book available--and the only one you'll ever need. <P> <b>Jeff Hwang</b>--a semi-professional poker player as well as an investment and casino analyst for the Motley Fool--is serious about promoting small-stakes live Pot-Limit Omaha (much the same way that small-stakes No-Limit Hold'em has taken off). He has established a concerted strategy aimed at winning the big pots, while using positional advantage to pick up pots (not necessarily on the flop) when the money is not all in. And based on the Big Play Objectives (the nut straight freeroll, nut full house freeroll, set-over-set, flush-over-flush, overfull vs. underfull, top-set plus draws, and dominating draws), Jeff has sought to change the way the average Omaha player thinks about starting hands, as well as the game of PLO itself. 2545031 1 1 2008 Pot-Limit Omaha Poker total:8|5:2|4:4|3:1|2:1|1:0| 8 31 16 1 0 0 false false Fri Jan 30 00:18:42 -0800 2009 Fri Jan 30 00:19:11 -0800 2009 4 0 false false Mon Nov 09 12:11:56 -0800 2009 Mon Nov 09 12:11:56 -0800 2009 2 0 false false Sat Oct 17 05:10:47 -0700 2009 Sat Oct 17 05:10:47 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Fri Oct 16 13:46:46 -0700 2009 Fri Oct 16 13:46:46 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Fri Jul 31 20:49:15 -0700 2009 Thu Sep 17 17:27:02 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Sun Jul 05 09:09:10 -0700 2009 Sun Jul 05 09:09:10 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Wed Jun 03 20:02:13 -0700 2009 Wed Jun 03 20:02:13 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Thu May 21 14:27:11 -0700 2009 Thu May 21 14:27:11 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sun Dec 28 19:25:00 -0800 2008 Sun Dec 28 19:25:05 -0800 2008 5 0 false false Thu Nov 13 11:13:37 -0800 2008 Thu Nov 13 11:19:12 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Tue Nov 04 09:36:49 -0800 2008 Tue Nov 04 09:36:49 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Fri Sep 05 05:09:27 -0700 2008 Fri Sep 05 05:09:27 -0700 2008 4 0 false false Sun Sep 07 07:27:32 -0700 2008 Thu Jul 17 17:39:04 -0700 2008 Sun Sep 07 07:27:32 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Thu May 01 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Thu Jul 17 13:01:54 -0700 2008 Thu Jul 17 13:01:54 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Wed Jun 11 11:22:27 -0700 2008 Wed Jun 11 11:22:27 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Sun Jan 20 16:59:40 -0800 2008 Sun Jan 20 16:59:40 -0800 2008 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=2537502
