In early position everything seems to be absolutely different and you can beat the position disadvantage only with very strong starting hand. This is why in order to understand how important is the position in Omaha Hi/Lo, you have to understand first what is the very nature of this game. So, what is the point? In short, the point is to win the high and the low pot together. At first, this seems to be very easy to achieve. But the real donors to a good player are the players who do not realize that. And there are a lot of players like that in Omaha. It is a very popular situation when two opponents with nuts-low raise to death. With this act they fill the pot with their money not for themselves but for the player with nuts-high. He is the one who is going to take the half of the pot and they are going to take just a quarter of it. This is a substantial source of profit for the player who does not play this way and uncompensated loss for the player who does. What has this situation to do with the position? Let us think about it. Getting very strong high or low hand, in most of the cases you have to continue playing no matter what is your position. The stronger the hand is, the more aggressively you should play. The pre-flop actions of your opponents actually don’t give you a lot of information. First, all players have four pocket cards and second, the hands can be high, low or high and low at the same time.  The truth is that in Omaha Hi/Lo, the pre-flop actions are probably the most important for the game. Playing Hi/Lo it is very important to create the most favourable conditions for you no matter how the things are going to turn out. In order to achieve this goal, the
osition is really very, very important.
