I finished reading another poker book it was Pot-Limit Omaha Understanding Winning Play by William Jockusch.
It was a good book, very enlightening. Jockusch takes a thorough approach to explaining the key concepts of PLO. The layout of the book reminds me of Hold em Poker for Advanced Players which is fine with me. The author understands that most of the readers will be people like me coming over from hold 'em.
I was pretty clueless about PLO going in. I learned a lot from this book it was a great treatment of PLO for the players coming in from other forms of poker. There's a quiz at the end which was helpful and illustrates the concepts and how they apply to different stack sizes.
There's a lot in there and I will cycle back and read it again. This is a very good PLO book from 2+2 and I recommend it.

moving up pot-limit Omaha
I completed my objective to play 500 hands of $0.01/$0.02 PLO. I ended up winning around 10 BB / 100 over the small sample size.
It was fun my first time playing PLO. I seemed to run well often getting Aces and good hands holding up after the flop. There are some weak areas to work on including overvaluing KK both before and on the flop, blind defense, and evaluating my equity on the flop in short stack all in situations.
I mostly played FR but I did want to try Zoom on PokerStars. What a blast Zoom is. Great implementation, it was fun to play. I'll definitely play Zoom at the coming levels.
