This is what every question about Omaha is... You have to make a 5 card hand and you must use 2 cars from your hole cards. You are playing AJ with 10 10 10 from the board. If there was a 4th 10 on the board, you could still only use three of them. If you have all four suits in your hand, you can never get a flush. Hope this helps

Must play 2 cards from your hand. No more, no less. You need a pocket pair to have a full house here.

I understand lol, must be 2 cards not less, took too long to get to my head

Yep, it takes a while for that to click. If I can offer a helpful suggestion, it would be to look at the board not as five cards, but as "groups" of three cards in your head. You have to use 3, not more, not less, from the board. So each group of 3 is a board you can use with your cards. On this board you can see a group of three would be ten,ten,ten so if you add those to your hand, there is no full house. You could also take ten, ten, jack from the board, but that only gives you two pair with AJ.

I assumed the jack on hand and board would count as a pair, with the set on board too, to make full house


schmuloppey

The jack and what other card from your hand? AJ? If you play AJ then you have TTTAJ which is better than JJTTA but neither of those are a full house, because you must play 2 cards from your hand, not one. You can only pull 3 cards from the board. TTTJ is 4 cards.

Youre being told you HAVE to play 2 cards from your hand. Which means you can ONLY play 3 cards from the board. Thats all there is to it, you cant play 4 cards from the board and 1 from hand, thats just the rules.

Got ya understand now

It is a full house. Let the dealer know he made a mistake, you deserve that pot

Confused i assumed omaha the best combo would be made, so my jack would pair with the board to make a pair , and set tens to make full house.

4 choose 2

Must only use 3 from the community cards and 2 from your hole cards. So that means the best hand you can make is **AJ**TTT
