how and why??

[callious]

basically, i had an a high flush (diamonds)
but when cards turned over it didnt recognise it...

wtf..

then the following hand the same bloke that took me out had an a high flush (hearts) and it recognised it...

how come it didnt recognise mine when it would have wiped the floor with everyone in my hand...

i'm severely pissed off!

Do you know the basic rules to Omaha? You can only use 2 of the cards given to you, and 3 from the board.

[BigA1]

You did not say what you were playing. If you were playing omaha, please remember that you can only use 2 cards from your hand.

[Matadoo]

No even can you ONLY use 2 cards from your hand of 4

But you MUST use 2 cards from your hand. You cant only use only one of them.

Omaha sounds odd? How do you pick the two that you use? Or does the computer just pick the best ones for you? Have never played but seems a little off.......

[jblough69]

You don't pick the cards you use here, the computer puts together the best hand you can make and tells you what that hand is. But, as Matador said, you must use two cards and only two cards from your hand and three from the board.

i sympathize with you callious. same thing happened to me .. i want all in expecting to win but i didnt lol...so i was pretty annoyed to say the least ...
...however now i know the rules i was in the wrong to be upset by the predicament .. as all have already said only use two cards from your hand and 3 from the board...good luck for the rest
