Message: [QUOTE="SYWTWAF, post: 1697948, member: 77923"] Some of the differences I can think of off the top of my head include what constitutes a good starting hand (a big pair should not be overvalued. You want 4 cards that "work together", e.g. have the potential to flop big straight or flush draws), it's more of a post-flop game than HE because of how close preflop equities run (which in turn affects your starting hand selection; you want hands that play well post-flop), and what may be a "strong" hand in HE isn't necessarily strong in Omaha (you often need to make what (from a HE player's perspective) may seem like big lay downs; e.g. trips, flushes, boats). There's much more to it, but the best way to get a feel for the differences is definitely to just give it a go. [/QUOTE]
