Gump pretty much hits the nail on the head. Even though I may not be one to talk, one thing I pay attention to is spelling and big grammar errors when reading online articles. I tend to use them as criteria for presumed authority. Yet, even Hwang uses the non-word "irregardless," so mine is not a hard and fast standard.bastinptchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01831273031973399021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3083330322113258405.post-27471245421853491982009-02-12T17:53:00.000-08:002009-02-12T17:53:00.000-08:00"One place they say position isn't very important ..."One place they say position isn't very important (or as important as in hold 'em), and another said it was even more important."<BR/><BR/>Mojo, I think it's more to do with Pot Limit than just Omaha. In PL, being out of position is tricky cos you can't price out draws or take down a pot. So typically, I'm forced to check-raise a lot OOP. In position, I have the luxury of seeing everyone else act, drawing cheaply and betting enough to push people out if I think I'm in front.Forrest Gumphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06314271152182792365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3083330322113258405.post-2981619817009430902009-02-12T15:45:00.000-08:002009-02-12T15:45:00.000-08:00Thx, Crash, I'll try that one, too.Thx, Crash, I'll try that one, too.Memphis MOJOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12653631347560307425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3083330322113258405.post-24629568432866536502009-02-12T13:52:00.000-08:002009-02-12T13:52:00.000-08:00The Full Tilt strategy guidebook also has a sectio...The Full Tilt strategy guidebook also has a section on it, written by Chris Ferguson.Crashhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15170011539472789212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3083330322113258405.post-65165212765855479242009-02-12T13:50:00.000-08:002009-02-12T13:50:00.000-08:00I did some looking around on the internet.

There's lots of info on the net, but which to believe is key, I guess.<BR/><BR/>I'll take a look at SS2.
