I must be looking at it wrong as i,ve looked at it about ten times and thought i had the str8 with my 6 , (which bts three 4,s)  but surely the computer can,t be wrong.

Can someone point out my mistake (if there is one) before i go to customer services ?

It's 2 cards from your starting hand and 3 from the board therefore you do not have the straight.

Not a lot to look at bud You had a pair of tens they had three 4s.

I take it you keep looking at it because you could not believe you called his raise with just a pair,or did you forget you had to use 2 cards from your hand and thought you had a straight.

edit; must type quicker

Cheers M8 - it was my first ever sesh on Omaha. Didn,t realise you could only use three from the board.

Feel a bit daft but glad i posted as i won,t be making that mistake again - after an hour i actually finshed £10 up as well

Its very easy really, just remember in omaha you are dealt 4 cards, you must use exactly 2 of the four cards, no more, no less!

Just to add that if like me you're still trying to get to grips with omaha then I find it useful to have the best hand description turned on. I find it helps to minimise mistakes like misreading your hand.

yeah cheers for advive

It was first time I played Omaha, apart from making mistake  when enetering the odd STT in the past, but is it me or would ppl say there are less bad beats in Omaha than Hold'em ?
