Have one question about wining hands in omaha hi/lo.
My cards are:A spades 2 clubs 9 hearts and J diamonds
Opponents are:A diamonds 3 clubs 4 diamonds and 7 clubs
On the table are:A hearts 4 hearts 4 spades 10 clubs J spades
Why we didn`t split the pot?
It seems to me that I have Lowest hand A spades, 2 clubs and cards from the table: 4 harts, 10 clubs and J spades?
Anyone know the answer, I was searching but still don´t know the answer?

There is no Lo pot available on this hand because there are not 5 cards in your hand that are lower than an 8. Your Lo hand is: A 2 4 9 10, which doesn't qualify. Here is a quote from HendonMob.com that explains it well:

In Hi/Lo games, there is always an Eight qualifier for the low. In other words, to qualify as a low hand, you must have five different cards ranked Eight or below. Thus 8-7-6-5-4 qualifies as a low hand in Hi/Lo games, whereas 9-4-3-2-A and 4-3-3-2-A do not. The 9-4-3-2-A hand contains only four qualifying low cards (the Nine is disqualified), and the 4-3-3-2-A hand only has four cards of different ranks (pairs are also not permitted).
