Disagree with this. The play is not tight but I do not think it is a loser. In fact it is the kind play you have to make to actually win a tournament. Unless your plan of attack is to wait for A/A/K/10 two suits and fold everything else?
You will not be winning Omaha tournaments if you do not take a few draws, my opinion is that you have the equity here.... Assuming that you are doomed is a little defeatist IMO.
I don't think we should have to go too deep into the differences between Tournament and cash-game play here, although we could go on for pages with that discussion. Suffice to say that IMO there are many hands that are foldable in a cash game that are playable in a tournament, and the opposite is also true.
Of course if you insist it is a losing play then it comes down to weather you think you have the number here or not. Since you are risking about 80 to win over 100, I think you have the odds.
