Anyone really good at omaha please tell me what happened here???????

[three3y3]

biggest mistake i see newbies to omaha is they play like its hold em........not even close... first things first you cant make straights and flushes with just one whole card to the board..u need to use two whole cards. aces and kings arent such power monsters like as in hold em.....one less card to catch two pair...or help working towards a straight....two pairs straights or flushes seem to be the majority of winning hands very rarrely you will win a pot with a pair...and sets hitting happen at a much higher frequency and are more likely to get caught set over set ...with those fundamentall understandidngs and alot hands played youll learn....were all learning
