Hey Bonch, I started playing $2PLO on UB in early 2004 when I got burnt out on SnGs, and didn't feel like playing hold'en ring games ( I had actually never played a limit hold'em yet).

Anyway, they are fun, and I made a little money. Championship Omaha is a Cloutier book, not Ciaffone. Play Poker Like the Pro's was all I read when I started.

My only improvement on Phil's advice is that he over values AAxx.

Oh yeah, good start to the year! Hopefully you won't hit any snags.
