| Can someone tell me what is the worst possible omaha starting hand? I don't play omaha much, so I was just wondering. |

2222, 3333, 4444. You get where I'm going with this. Any four of a kind is pretty, but pretty bad.  |

| I've actually got four dueces before, and it was my big blind..It sux...it can only beat an unpaired hand, which rarely happens in omaha. |

Any four of a kind in your hand is terrible, followed closely by three of a kind, or four unconnected cards of all one suit. i saw a guy reraise, yes reraise all his chips before with aaaa vs. three other players, he lost, came in last actually. |

many players don't recognize that they have to use exactly two of their hole cards, not three or four...
but good fur us... |

4 of one colour is really bad, it's no flush if there are 1 or two hearts in the flop and you got 4 in your hand...
you take away your outs by yourself.. |

| I am not much of a omaha player but still learning it myself. but four of a kind in a hand and all cards in the same suit isnt that good of a hand. Thats all I can really tell ya like i said im still learing myself. |

| Wouldn't it be better to have 4 cards of one suit than 4 different suits? |

yeah at least with all being one suit you can at least make a flush, with 4 rainbow cards, it's impossible. |
