Four in a row is nice but Hi/Lo that doesnt help to raise with bc u somtimes can with the Hi only and most of the time u are going to slit with a low. that and if u play high cards most of the time u have to be drawing for the nutz to win the hand J suited isnt very good

nope neither,, since omaha is a game of draws, ANY combination can become dead,, there are levels in Omaha, the best starting hand at the flop maybe be cancelled on the turn ,, and so on.. by the way, waiting for the "perfect" hand in Omaha,, isnt recommended

also,, it's not "technically" acurate to say you can only use 2 cards in your hand, in h/l you can utilize all 4 cards, not on the same hand, but 2 for the high, 2 for the low,, i didnt know that when i first started playing

You deserved what you got. I assume it was omaha high. But why push in with that. You don't even have 2 cards of the same suit. It would be a diferent matter if it wereÂ*

All you have there are 2 paired hands and 4 lots of AKos. So you have 4 longshot straight draws and 2 chances to be dominated by flopped trips.
You must be double suited to be agressive with a hand like this because it opens up so many more outs for you later in the hand.
