Was just dealt Ace,Ace,King,King,,, two of them suited,,,and it got me thinking,, we all know the best starting hand in Hold'em is pocket Aces,,, now, What is the best starting hand in Omaha High,, not High/Lo...
Not saying that A/A & K/K are the best and I'm not sure what I think is the best. Maybe double suited A/K/Q/J ?
What do you think?
its a toughy but i guess u want the hand with the most possible outs...its probably why you get so many callers every handQuote:

i like two good low cards a2 or a3 with a hi pair prefer something suited tough game changes with every card
best starting hand is like you said AKAK ss
Negative, why would you want that? JustSayn..............................Quote:

Then possibly AA and two cards thats double suited. The best non pair starting hand would be JT98 because there are so many ways to make str8s and ds to make flushes.Quote:

4 of a kind as a starting hand is probably the worst possible hand, the best you can have is 2 pair (your cards and if the board pairs). i think the best hand is something like akq10 two different suits or something along those lines. the best hand you can be up against is definitely an in experienced player with aces or kings in their hole cards.
not a joke i said the hand i did because of the straight/straight flush draws both up and down with every card linking to the next, assuming they are double suited, so AT gives u the possible A high straight, T7 gives u the possibility of the updown jack or ten high straight, 74 gives u the 8/7 high straight and A4 gives u the 5 high, 2 over cards and all the flush posibilitys, its a hand i would consider playing more than AAKK is allQuote:

not like this game think dangerous
Unless you are playing heads up, you are only going to get in trouble playing that. Someone will usually have 1 part of that hand crushed. And the board pairing basically kills your hand if you are getting action.Quote:

There you go...Quote:

If you're playing at a full table though and your raising in hopes to get it all in your probably going to get drawn out on.
