    Just like to say a big well done to Sky Poker for this weekend and tomorrow.  Look forward to reading young Kendall's post on Omaha and see if I'm up to the challenge of Omaha

    It was your diary that I saw that famous hand! Do you mind if I recreate that post over here, so I can explain it in more detail?

    Oi! You are not supposed to be over there! Sadly, my Diary has been a bit neglected over there recently, as I've been a bit busy here at Sky Poker.

    Feel free to try & recreate the hand here. The problem is, it really needs Card Icons, which "they" have, & we don't, to make it easy to read.

    I wish with every bone in my body we had card icons here, but we don't, & that's that. Rather sad that, I have to say.

    I'm not sure the hand will read well without Card Icons, but feel free to try. maybe - maybe - it will Copy & Paste, but I doubt it.

    I saw the hand in a book that Phil Hellmuth penned a good few years back.

    I must say i am really looking forward to having the chance to play a bit of Omaha online here on Sky Poker!!!

    Omaha is a game where you need some serious skill and not become a luckbox like me lol!!

    It's looking like Sky Poker is going to go from strength to strength in 2010 which is exciting stuff in my eyes.

    Right, hopefully this will work...

    The hand alluded to is as follows:

    Player 1:





    Player 2:





    Player 3:





    Player 4:





    Player 5:





    Player 6:





    And the flop, unbelievably, was:


    , which helped EVERYONE. Which hand would you want after that flop? Top set? Middle set? The straight flush draw?

    Images have worked.

    The turn, now, was the King of clubs:



    This gives our man top 2 sets, yet I challenge you all to find a card that is good for him on the river :)

    (Hint: you can't!)

    This is a pretty extreme hand, but it serves as a good hand to show that you might have the nuts at a specified time during a hand, but you cannot win the hand because of all the draws that are out there.

    Bet your hand to protect your hand.
