I usually play LHE and i started playing limit omaha high this week.I can't figure out which hands should i play and which hands i shouldnt.I think flop and river are very important in this game(i usually see %25 of flops in HE) so i usually try to see the flop unless i am dealed something like 2-4-7-j rainbow.

am i making a mistake by trying to see the flop most of the time?

and which hands should i play preflop?

Thanks for your help and excuse my bad English.

Your English is better than a high percentage of the posters here .

Don't see as many flops as you are seeing. Try to avoid small pairs, especially out of position. Small pairs make small full houses, and those are death. I see a lot of flops in PLO, but in position. It is much harder to control the pot size out of position.

The hands that I prefer preflop are connecting cards and double-suited big cards. Connecting cards (like j-10-9-8, q-j-10-9, etc.) are nice because they have a lot of possibilities. Big pairs are the most overrated hands in omaha. I almost never raise with them so that when I hit a hand with them, it is easier to get paid off. Also, keeping the pot relatively small with big pairs makes it less profitable for your opponents if they have a big draw against you.

Thanks for the reply mate.There aren't many omaha players i can learn from so it really helped.Thanks.
