Pot-Limit Omaha: The Resteal Float

Occasionally, when you bet from late position, a player who suspects a steal may try to float you from out of position by calling your bet and then betting out on the turn. In this spot, if you suspect that your opponent is making a play, you can often float him back. This is the resteal float....

Pot-Limit Omaha: Basic Preflop Play

Last issue, I classified starting hands in pot-limit Omaha (PLO) by hand strength, breaking them down into premium, speculative, marginal, and trash (everything else) categories. For the most part, the hands within each specific group will be played about the same way before the flop. Let's...
