Me likey Omaha!!

Sat down this afternoon and blew through $300 at 2/4PL08 and it could have been a lot worse - two hands running I had trips with top kicker and the same guy had full houses each time but check called ???

So I switch to Omaha hi and proceed to hit a hot streak thanks to hands like this and some awful opponents.

If you're getting nowhere/stale at Hold em, I recommend Omaha if you have the ability to wait for the nuts or monster draws and push hard.
