In my local omaha tournament I nearly always make it to the final table but I still haven't won it. So obviously there is a massive hole in my omaha heads up game. Does anyone know of any resources for heads up omaha games.

Quit getting outdrawn.

Okay, seriously... not entirely sure. SS2 has a section, don't know how much heads-up advice it has.

Have you tried TJ Cloutier's Championship Omaha?

I'll try both of those suggestions thanks. The books that I have seen on omaha don't have very much on heads up play.

ugh. I advise anyone who has gotten past the sniffing butt stage to use the TJ series in the same way they'd use the Hellmuth book, as a coaster for your cups,cans, amnd glasses. OP are you playing PLO or O8, there's a real big difference between them

Heads up omaha is a really flop dependant game.. you want to be able to steal lots of pots heads up.. your requirements for hand stregth go way down.. when you are heads up, your shitty draws like low flush draws no longer become shitty, because it's unlikey you'll be up against a better flush draw... so you get more and more and more outs...you no longer have to worry about the nuts as much heads up.. just be aggressive and try and steal pots win you smell weakness, and go for broke when you have lots of outs..

you want to be very very aggressive, you are almost never more that an 3-2 underdog, just bet the hell out of them
