| Omaha.... Very confused.... Right I understand Omaha very will but there 1 one thing which is confusing me.... Let so the hand is A K 7 3 Flop is 336 Turn 5 River 3 That means he had made quads ? But why does not the 2 card rule kick in? Or Is the other card a kicker? Hope someone can clear it up for me because its really bugging me! |

Yes, you would. Silly of me. Didn`t read it properly due to the formatting (that`s my excuse, anyway). |

Ok, that`s 7 7 7 7 4. The best 3 cards from the board are 777, and from your hand they are 74 (it`s easier when I can see that clear presentation, lol). |

I guess you can think of it that way, but I would say the easiest way to understand it is as the best 3 from the board plus the best 2 from your hand to make the best 5 cards overall. |

| re: Omaha.... Very confused.... poker If you played NL Holdem prior, omaha isn't a huge stretch as far as the rules are concerned. After a couple dozen hands you should be on the right track of how to play somewhat decently. I was attempting to learn but Stars only offers omaha hi lo sit and gos, so you can imagine how the first couple sngs went. I was a bit confused, took a closer look at the rules and most of all, relied on the hand info on the table which tells you what your best hand is and if you have a qualifying low. Anywhoo. Yeah. It's a bit confusing to start off, but you'll be playing semi decent in no time. Real money is obviously a different story imo b/c almost everyone playing in the fake monies have no idea how to play omaha, not to mention hi lo. I'm going to try to find a program with play money omaha rings or sngs to practice in, not this hi lo jazz. |
