You can't use 4 cards from the board in Omaha. You must play two and only two from your hand and three and only three from the board.

Yes...you had A high. :)

To try and clarify this a bit ......

I'm with Zernej. Pretty easy to pick up 3-5 BBs/hr without even really thinking (at lower levels, anyway) playing 8-or-better.

Just fold once in a while, and they'll give it to you when you do have a hand.

To answer the original question, yep, A high. Exactly two.

Ah, we've all done it. Some of us more than others. :?
