IMO, it's good advice for beginners.

IMHO for PLO8 such hands as 23Wx just sucks as well as A2 with no side feature in EP vs. LP raise. Just ask yourself: "How are you gonna to scoop the pot or get 3/4 of it?"
Well, obviously you like starting hands that have the best chance to scoop. But you get dealt a lot of hands and flops such that your hand doesn't seem to have good two way potential. A partial answer to your question is if you play some situations selectively aggressively, it's possible to convert one way nut hands into scoopers.
For example, if you hold A
,3
,6
,K
, the flop is
9
,7
,2
, and the turn is 6
, by judicious, aggressive betting, you may convert your hand from a probable low winner to a scooper, outplaying opponents with better high hands.
