I want to look now at a hand that you have no business playing in Omaha high low unless you are in the big blind you can say check. This is jack nine six five rainbow even though if I had suits out here you want to think twice before playing this hand. The reason is that your best low hand the nut low ace to five you can't make that with six five. Your best high hand is ten to ace well, royal flush but let's just say we are playing for the straight you can't make your best straight with jack nine. So before the flop, this hand jack nine six five is a considerable under dog, if I get this hand in early position if I'm the first to act after the initial deal I don't want to see the flop, I want to throw it away. Now if I'm on the button and let's say everybody at the table went in okay, see the flop it's cheap we'll see what happens. If I'm in small blind and I have to pay a half bet to see a flop, okay. If I'm in the big blind I don't have to do anything with check great but other than that if you get these cards please don't see the flop cause you are going to cause you some money most likely.
