   Great book

   

   Finally a non-idiot book for pot limit 0maha. Rolf claims to “have held nothing back” in his book, and I believe him. Slotboom details his “small-stack” strategy which mathematically served him to become one of his games most frequent winners. He also details a large-stack strategy. His book is pretty comprehensive, he covers starting hands, but he goes into more detail–detailing on how he would play them on early and also on the button. This book also includes “classic” Slotboom articles. Slotboom’s writing style is fun. He’s a deep thinker but you’ll also see him in a deep strategy section refer to an opponent as “tight-a**”!

   One professional’s approach

   

   I bought this to learn and improve my Omaha game for possible entry into tournaments. This book relates a personal approach which, although interesting and with a few applicable hints, generally is not a “how-to” presentation.

   An unorthodox approach to the game

   

   Rolf presents an interesting playing philosophy for the pot limit Omaha game. I especially liked the way he discussed the changes he had to make in his playing style as his competition adjusted to his game. His style takes more patience than many players possess but will constantly show a profit if followed. It has helped my game a lot.
