Title: Omaha H/L query
Post by: Maxriddles on August 06, 2008, 05:33:35 PM
Accidently registered for a SNG on stars in N/L Omaha H/L, thought I was well in for the low hand but shipped the lot. The hand history states no qualifying low hand, not really played hi/lo before so was wondering if anyone could enlighten me.

If there was no low hand and you won the pot then you must of had a better hi hand than your opponent

for a low to be possible there needs to be 3 or more independant cards 8 or lower on the board, and these 3 cards must be different than the two you hold in your hand.

IE if board comes 456KK and you ave A4QQ you do not have a low hand

Okay, thanks for that, I must have looked a real mug to everyone else at the table then.
