It sure is. That would be the best starting hand in PLO. I like hands in Omaha like Ad Kd Jh 10h cause it gives you the opportunity to make a straight or a flush and if you cant hit that then u might hit top 2 pair and be good anyways...........

Its good to be holding the best starting hand, of course it is. Omaha is a really complex game, i prefer sticking to holdem, because there are too many things to learn on omaha for me.

I like hands that are connected with two flush draws especially middle cards since they offer more straight possibilities and a potential of 2 flush draws.

That hand is good in omaha but you also have to remember that is only if the flops come up with a bunch of high cards such as 10 J Q or another A or K comes up. if you have 789 on the flop then what do you do. Seeing as someone could be playing 10JQK lol. You never know.

I've read in alot of places that flushes aren't usually good if it's a medium or low flush. I even read in places that unless it's the nut flush, you're most likely beat. I'm not sure if that's accurate info though.

i have to agree with shad, cards from 6 to 10 are useless in omaha, u dont want a 10 high flush, and of course u dont want a 10 high straight. Its better to fold all these hands because they can make u lose a lot of money.
