HOW GOOD IS YOUR POT LIMIT OMAHA?

Spend a little time playing Omaha and it could soon become your favourite variation.

Stewart Reuben's book comes in the form of an Omaha quiz.  Based on his experiences at what would be for most, high stakes cash games, Reuben guides the reader through a series of example hands.  Along the way, the reader is encouraged to note how they would of acted at key stages throughout any given hand.  At the conclusion of each hand, Reuben tells the reader how they did and compares their actions to how he played it in real life.  A score and rating is then given.

If readers don't partake in the quiz side of the book then they will certainly find some of the hands very interesting.  New players to Omaha will get some idea of how the game works but a basic understanding of the game is assumed by the author throughout.  You may not get a definitive answer to the question posed by the title of this book and more experienced Omaha players may disagree with Reuben about some of the plays made, but for most, this book should prove very useful in improving their Omaha game.

Amongst the few Omaha books on the market today, this is one of the better reads.

How Good Is Your Pot Limit Omaha is available for around $12.99 at many online retailers.
