Haha, nice.

Omaha is a great game, I prefer NL Hi/Lo though.

No, Omaha is still the devil's play-thing.

I guess if you can adjust to the drawy nature, and can tolerate people chasing ridiculously it can be ok. However, I will only play Omaha for fun as a break from NLHE.

It's funny you mention this because I just saw last night a $2.00 HU Omaha tourney on stars. I played it just because I was too tired to concentrate on Hold em.
