Sounds pretty reasonable, insofar as I can judge O8. Hand selection is obviously quite different, but yours sounds pretty consistent in terms of quality with something like top 6% or so (?).

At PLO, I do notice that there are these kind of raisy phases and then limp phases, depending in part on players and in part on mood, I think--maybe also just on cards.

I also noticed that Lyle Berman in SS2 doesn't like raising in EP at all.

I do it even in EP occasionally nonetheless on strong hands when the table is in kind of loose-passive mode. I don't particularly want to get re-raised big here, although I'm doing it on hands that can handle the re-raise. Generally, though, if you have a re-raisy table, you can just limp and let LP raise for you.

What I've also noticed is that, if the table is pretty limpy and not a lot of action, raising can sometimes get a more gambly type of game going.

yeah, i wasn't sure and too lazy to look up the correct spelling.

Crap, I think I am getting Berman mixed up with Billy Baldwin. Or something like that.

Yeah, that's possible. Bobby Baldwin wrote another chapter in SS2--not sure whether he's so good at Omaha. The only place I've really heard of Berman is in the book, too, but I figure Doyle had something in mind when he picked his lineup...
