Video Transcript

"I talk about how in Omaha high low you need cards that work together. You get 4 starting cards; I say you need all of them to be working together. Here is an example of pretty much that. We got ace 3 suited and king 4 suited. Now let's deconstruct the number of ways that we can get a strong high or a strong low hand with these 4 starting cards. We can get a high of a flush to the ace with this ace 3 of diamonds, we have an ace and king good ole' big slick which can work in a number of ways to get the high. One of them for example, being a straight to the ace, we have king 4 suited which if it gets a little help can be the nut flush and then we have 3 4. Which is most of the time will not make the best low hand but it can be the nut in a straight to the 5 or a straight to the 6. We have ace 4 which can never be the nut high almost unless a free flop comes but it can be the nut low. It can gives us a low of a 5 low and again ace 3 can be the nut low, a 5 low so you see this hand has a number of ways that the cards work together and that is what you are looking for."
