Whats the best possible hand preflop in omaha Hi?

I would think AAKK with the AKs suited.

for Omaha Hi it would probably be that, anything with AA is pretty good, I like As Ac 9h 8h type hands tbh.

yeah its pretty obvious the best hand is aces and kings double suited.

I got sick hand but it is not good after all

if all 4 cards would count i would have been in very good problems

I don't think that AAKK is the best hand preflop in omaha, somethimes even 2345 beats them

i think 2 times suited connectors as : 9s 8s and jc 10c

Against one opponent, AaAbKaKb is the strongest starting hand in Omaha (against multiple opponents, the strongest starting hand is AaAbJaTb), while in Omaha Hi-Low the best starting hand is AaAb2a3b, which gives A-2-3 for making a low hand and straights, two suited aces for nut flushes, and a pair of aces for high. The best low starting hand is A-2-3-4, which makes the nut low hand more than 92% of the time when a qualifying low hand is possible and has a better than 50% chance to win at least a portion of the pot at showdown with an 8-high low qualifier, and at least ⅔ of the time will win at least a portion of the pot with a 9-high qualifier.
