Tag quarters

In limit Omaha 8, scoop paths beat scoopless middles. 'Tag quarters' stops you from paying for fake halves.

Worked example

three-low flop, 2nd-nut low + weak high — control; nut low + live high — press.

Common leak

Buddy leak ('Tag quarters'): 'I have a low' as a complete reason multiway.

Drill

Drill ('Tag quarters'): tag one quartered river and write the earlier fold that prevented it.

Coaching note

Hi-lo coaching staple: an 8-low or better must qualify — know the house rule before you chase halves. Check 'Tag quarters' against it.

Practice habit

sticky-note the trigger for 'Tag quarters' before your next limit Omaha 8 session.

Drill

buddy repeats 'Tag quarters' in one sentence with a concrete board — or you re-teach.

Remember

Avoid scoopless middles.
