Think I got hosed...
 

I have A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]3 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]J [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]8 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] in the BB. Four players go down to the river. The board is..

6 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]7 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]8 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 2 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

A player holding 2 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]3 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] was awarded lo. Don't I have a split here??

Re: Think I got hosed...
 

The hand as you posted it is a split.

Re: Think I got hosed...
 

you both have a 7632A
split low

Re: Think I got hosed...
 

Come on the other dude probably had a 4 or a 5 to go with his 3.

Then it'd be a 6x32A Lo, which makes sense.

Nope. The dealer called his 23 the nut low. There's usually only 1 or 2 Omaha/8 tables at my B& M, and the dealers are really sketchy about reading the board. It's my fault for not insisting on a floor manager.

Here you both have a "live three."

Actually having run through Omaha8 live for some Hold'em players last night, I have some sympathy for the dealer.

When you've got multiple Lo hands to compare, and there's some counterfeiting it'd be all too easy to miss something. Guess there's value in knowing exactly what hand you made and declaring it, and as the Count suggests, insisting on it.
