Posted by Mober: In Omaha you can make quads with only 1 of your four cards and three on the table. Its the only winning hand where you can use only one card. All others require two of your four dealt cards
Didn't know that but I don't play omaha online.
strictly speaking u are using two cards from your hand but ur other card is irrelevant there
e.g. board 5 8 5 9 5
and u have 4 6 5 J
winning hand will be 5 5 5 5 J but your J is totally useless here

Ive read my above post again and must say its seems wrong. Not the way i meant to say it and cant edit it now.
For example in both quads situations ( a dealt pair and a flopped pair, or a set in a flop and 1 of the dealt cards) we use 4 cards In the first situation its the pair and in the second we add a kicker from our cards in order to use 2 of them. Supernoob's example
The kicker of course can be used in three of a kind. A flopped pair for example and one of your cards with a kicker its 3 of a kind or the other way around.( set made with a dealt pair along with a community card).
The same thing with the kicker doesnt apply for full house If the comunity cards for example are 99AAK and you hold an A234 then its not a full house.
I was just focused on the example about quads by sadamman
I hope i didnt mislead anyone and since i dont have the option to repot my post , please Admin remove the above post cause its misleading.
