stupid omaha n00b question...flame away

[Darth Poker]

getting sick of only playing hold'em, so am branching out into 7-stud and omaha hi. in omaha, the requirement of using both your hole cards brought me to this probably very stupid question. suits unimportant for example question.

you have in pocket: Q T 8 J

flop: A K J
turn: T

does the board T nullify your straight, or does your T play?

thanks, dudes

[Lafortezza]

Your QT with the AKJ on the board gives you the nut straight.

[RickyG]

tl;dr, n00b.

[Hattifnatt]

You got the nut straight and a draw to a low full house.

so it's an awesome freeroll and you should put it all in asap++.


Actually that's not a bad idea.
