 Pot-limit Omaha | Hold'Em | Advanced Play | Inside Edge UK   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-04)
One of the biggest mistakes beginners make in pot-limit Omaha is to look at their hand like a hold’em hand, playing any four cards that have a strong two-card combination.
This hand is a huge Omaha hand because you can flop several wrap straight draws on boards like K-J-x (you can hit an Ace, Queen, 10 or 9), and when you flop a flush draw it will be the nut flush draw or the second nut flush draw only.
Omaha is not a game where you tend to get all your money in before the flop – unless you specifically have A-A and think you can get the pot heads-up or you have the big wrap and flush kind of hand like J-10-9-7 double suited.

 Poker.Net - Shifting From HoldEm
Ideally, of course, you should learn to read your own hand—after all, all those bets and raises that got you to the river were based on your own understanding—but tabling your hand costs you very little, compared to what you stand to gain.
This advice applies even more strongly when a straight is possible, because good Omaha players like to play hands wherein all four cards "work together." If an Omaha board finishes up with a nine, a jack, and a queen on it, you can (in a high-only game) be fairly sure that someone has a straight.
In Omaha, position still matters, but far less: the pure value of your cards is more important.

In Omaha, the first and foremost rule is to look for four cards that are closely related to each other -- king (spades) -- queen (diamonds) -- jack (spades) -- 10 (diamonds), for example, where every card works with another, with many possible outcomes.
This is especially important to file away in your memory bank because so few people really understand how to play their first four cards and tend to play to the flop regardless of how good or bad the hand.
You can practice Omaha easily by dealing four cards down (and immediately evaluating it) and three cards up and then evaluating your hand in relation to the upcards.

 Omaha hold 'em - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It is often said that Omaha is a game of "the nuts", i.e.
Omaha Hi-Lo In high-low split, each player, using these rules, thus makes a separate five-card high hand and five-card ace-to-five low hand (eight-high or lower to qualify), and the pot is split between the high and low (which may be the same player).
In the game of "Courchevel", popular in Europe, instead of betting on the initial four cards and then flopping three community cards for the second round, the first community card is dealt before the first betting round, so that each player has four private cards and the single community card on his first bet.
