Omaha and the big full, Schuster, 29. May 2003 13:31

I'm getting my feet wet at omaha, and there have been a few times when I've had the big full house. Is this a situation to fear quads, or should you treat it as though you have the nuts? I've been playing mostly VERY inexperienced players, as far as I can tell.

You certainly need to fear quads more than in hold'em, but it shouldn't be a pressing concern. Obviously if you've got the lock tight then you have the best possible hand, but if you're holding the big tight then you need to excercise a little bit of caution. Likewise, ace high flushes are a dime a dozen, so if a straight flush is possible, it is much more likely to be there than in hold'em. They still don't happen too often, but you see them.
