Can you guys recommend any Omaha books? I was looking on amazon at some reviews and the one with the best reviews was "Pot-Limit Omaha Poker" by Jeff Hwang. It covers both PLO and some O8. I am just wondering which would be the best one to pick up. Thanks.

We have a book forum...?

Hwang's book has been spoekn of well here before. It's the one I bought last month when I decided to learn high only Omaha, and I think it's good. Certainly paid for itself!

There's only a handful of books out there, and only a couple that are good. The good: Ciaffone's Omaha poker (very thin, but packed full of info, no filler at all), Hwang's book previously mentioned

Ok great, just ordered Gus Hansen's new book as well as Hwang's book on Omahahaha. I can't wait!

I just started reading Secrets of Professional Pot-Limit Omaha by Rolf Slotboom. I haven't read much of it yet, but he explains how he beat games using a short stack system. It's not a how-to book but more of a diary of his travails in Amsterdamn and Vienna. Somewhat advanced, I think I might check out Hwang's book first

Some of the guys from 2p2 have started up a pot limit omaha website. It's in the very very early stages right now, but from what I hear they have some decent plans for the place. Check it out at http://www.plomaha.com

I read the PLO section in SS2 and it has enabled me to beat low stakes PLO games

Omaha is a game where books won't really help you that much. The number of different situations that come up is higher than in other forms of poker, so once you go beyond the basics, it becomes more about feel. The Hwang book is pretty good - it gives you the basics, all pretty much common sense. Farha on Omaha is also good for what it is, although for some reason 1/3 of it is devoted to Limit Omaha High.

He'll explain that again. And again. You'll also learn what to watch out for as a big stack: guys playing a short stack.

Size matters.

He's an advocate that shorter guys get all the action at the larger guys expense.

Are you serious?

Hwang's book is excellent, I felt a lot more confident playing PLO after reading it. I still stopped playing because I didn't like the crazy high-variance nature of the game, but it's a must read.
