Are You Ready for the Next Wave of Poker?
If you’ve never tried Pot-Limit Omaha, you’re missing out on the most exciting, most lucrative cash game around. Omaha has long been one of the most well loved forms of poker in Europe, as well as the Midwest and Southern United States. PLO is also the highest-stakes game in every cardroom in which the game is spread. And now it’s spreading like wildfire throughout North America. The reason is simple: Omaha offers more action and larger pots than Texas Hold’em. Isn’t it time you got in on it?
Whether you’re a cash-game professional or a recreational player — and whether you play live or online — this book will arm you with a winning huge-play strategy that’s simple to master even if you’ve never played Omaha before.
Key topics include:
– The Huge Play Objectives
– The Power of the Huge Draw
– Straight Draws and Starting Hand Construction
– Limit Omaha Hi/Lo and Pot-Limit Omaha Hi/Lo
Perfect with practice situations and hand quizzes, this is the most comprehensive Omaha book available — and the only one you’ll ever need.

I don’t know what Bob Ciaffone could have read to call it “very accurate technically” but it must have been a pre-printing proof of some kind. it could not possibly have been an actual physical book from the first printing.
There may be fantastic material here, but it is seriously hurt by poor editing (e.g. a whole paragraph repeated out of place on page 88/89) and the apparent LACK of technical review.
As for the Quiz on page 118, step 3, neither choice is even remotely acceptable. When that trey of diamonds hits the board, you MUST call the floor manager, show the same card from your hand, and insist that every chip in the pot go back to the player who place it in. Then, get a new deck (and probably a new dealer), and you STILL need to reconsider whether you ever want to play another hand in that card room. OBVIOUSLY one of persons cards was not printed according to the leader’s intent.
I don’t reflect there have been blocks larger than about a dozen pages lacking SOMETHING that any decent technical reviewer would have flagged.
The editor of this book should be ashamed. The technical reviewers, if in fact there were any, should be terminated. And the leader should seriously consider shopping for a new publisher.
The “Poker Boom” has rushed yet another not ready book into print. Yes, this book probably stands head and shoulders above many dozens of poker books *unworthy* of having been published at all, but we the buyers should send the publishers a message that shoddy production is not acceptable either.
I’m barely even middle through, but it would take a minimum of a revised edition to earn more stars. There’s probably five-star quality material in here, but you practically need a pickaxe to mine for it.

Are you an Holdem player who want’s to know Omaha? Well, this book is for you. I was such a player and didn’t know Omaha. Now I know it better and even if I don’t play it very much it also improved mu understanding of Holdem. Buy this book and you won’t regret.

I play PL08 for a living and I have to say this book refocused me on some of the concepts I kept forgetting.
A phenomenal work and a must read.
Reader’s Rating: 5 / 5
Excellent introduction to PLO. Basically teaches a forceful preflop strategy where you get the money in postflop dominating an opponent. For example, you both may have the same straight draw, but you also have a flush draw.
Main weakness of the book is it doesn’t talk much about postflop play with deep stacks.

As many books on the theme advocating playing “excellent hands” using “position”, no advanced strategy here. One problem I find is in many situational analysis (when having either a levelheaded made hand or strong draws) is the leader advices raising when faced with around half sized pot and folding to a full size pot. I find this advice gets repeated over and over, so by this logic it would be profitable /+ EV to raise with stone cold bluffs when facing tiny/half size bet nearly permanently!!. I am not adage the info is terrible, but added nothing to what I have already known/seen before.
