Omaha Starting Hands

 

Best Omaha Hi/Lo Starting Hands

These are the generally accepted best starting hands for Omaha Hi/Lo, aka Omaha Eight or Better. These startings hands become even stronger when the aces are accompanied by another card in the same suit, for a chance to draw to nut flush. For eg. As Ac 2s 3c would be one of the best starting hands possible. Additionally, when you have an Ace along with a King, Queen, or a Jack, you would want them all in the same suit in the perfect world, with a chance to draw to a straight/royal flush.
