Omaha Nirvana

Chugs

While i didn't get the kind of action i wanted (my fault for driving people out by raising pre-flop)

Count the made hands and draws i have with this hand ... it actually took me a second to comprehend the enormity of my hand.

If someone can give me a probable way of losing this hand (outside of someone making quads) i would love to know

my best for Omaha Hi limit is a $82 pot in 1-2 limit (full ring) and i flopped set of tens, river boated me, capped on eavery street (cept think turn was 3 bet) but it was capped preflop/flop by 6 ppl
it was a nice hand

My best Omaha hi experience is when I played for over an hour and was up $25 and the whole time I thought I was playing Omaha hi/lo (when I lost a pot with the "nut low" I kind of realized something was wrong) .

I've had quads, and lots of other things, just for some reason that hand really amused me ... it wasn't becuase it was a big pot, or others were betting like idiots ... I just found it to be such a great moment. Looking at a hand that was all but guaranteed to be the nuts, at the end. I had flopped the nuts, but also had all the other backup potential nuts covered. I was going to make the best full house and the best flush if either of those 'scare' cards came.

It just felt nice after 2-3 seconds once i took full stock and realized what great shape i was in.

Nothing wrong with raising preflop, and why not raise on the flop? Remember, even being Omaha, this is low-limit. We can see from just this hand alone that CrapPro is not going to fold for any number of bets on any street. He is calling you (and even bet once?!) with complete trash on every street here. "No fancy plays."

You could only lose this hand to quads or a running straight flush in hearts.

Actually, the only hand you can have on the flop in holdem (Texas or Omaha) where it is possible to have the immortal nuts is a straight flush.*

*One such that making a higher straight flush is not possible.
