It gives a good overview of the difference between HoldEm and Omaha. It gives a reasonable idea as to the general requirements for playable hands, and well emphasises the strategies which are important.

One thing to possibly emphasise more is the potential for scooping the pot, and how much of a difference there is between scooping and splitting.

I think it's a great starters guide - I just hope that not too many people start reading them and tightening up the Paradise and Pacific tables I tend to play on... although on my site I've got some card game tips which recommend Omaha Hi/Lo as the game to play for relatively easy wins with simple strategies like this.

One thing I've found with the ultra-loose tables is that you actually need more reading skills in some ways than may be the case in tighter pots. It helps if you can figure whether someone is playing for the high or low end of a pot, and also whether they have a nut straight or flush, as you may often find multiple people hoping to win with a flush, so figuring if you have the better flush when it's not the nut flush is handy.
