NickZepp 0 Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 In Omaha you have to have 2 hearts in your hand to have a flush. Same thing if you get a set. If a board comes QQAAx you don't have a full house if you have Qxxx, you just have a set. You have to use 2 hole cards and 3 community cards in Omaha Link to post Share on other sites

Elo and AG 0 Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Thanks for the info Rdog, I just withdraw all my money from stars..... If this is happening at nose bleed tables like this, I'm pretty sure it is happening at lower stakes as well. Link to post Share on other sites

Jariso13 1 Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 I knew there was something fishy behind my losses...Its all George Bush's fault. Shame on DN for repping sites that force you to play 2 cards in omaha.Although I did have a sweet hand on stars a few days ago where they let me act but never showed me my cards...apparently i disconnected but ill still say rigged lol...
