I like H Points as they do give a good basis for determining the strength of Omaha starting hands. I'd like to see a breakdown of percentages for all of the points. That would tell me what percentage of hands I should expect to get that would give me, for example, a 40 point hand or better.

That system was designed for limit hold'em, and doesn't even work that well in no limit hold'em, much less in Omaha.
In fact I'd say it's worse than useless in Omaha.

There is a book that lists all Omaha hands in order of best to worst. I believe there is a site to download the hands in order as well. If you find the list you, can see where a 40 point hand ranks in absolute and percentage terms. I would link it, but haven't been to the site in years and not sure where it is.

I remember using hutchinson for O8 unless I'm misremembering. I did a lot of little programming scripts about it back then but I don't remember anything now. I think writing your own stuff would be a useful endeavor.
