I'm not sure on the rules of Hi/Low (I only really know texas holdem). But is the reason that's nicer is because it's more likely your opponents will bet into it? Like with holdem if you have a royal flush there are other draws on the board at the same time. Will often scare people into not throwing down.

Haha, that is a sick hand Jovica.. Nice one I think I agree with you, in a Hi/Lo game this is much nicer than a royal. Who wants only one nut, when you can have two !

Don't now how to play stud but i play pot limit omaha, thats in fact my a game and there ou can also hit a lot of them
I mean a lot more frequent than on the most popular poker game, no limit texas holdem, and thats why i love omaha, there is always great to hit a flush or a full house

yes i believe so too that omaha in both versions hi and hi/lo is the game where you can hit the best combinations most of the times. I havent won any monster pot with Royal. The biggest was about 4$ if i remember correctly

Nice, I can see how that works now. Man that sure is a sweet hand, good job. That's an interesting poker variant too, must really change the way betting goes down. Maybe I should try it sometime for fun. Good luck out there all.
