Could I play that different? I figure I have to bet the nut straight and nut flush draw....

Still learning omaha so any comments help!

You dont have the nut flush draw - you have to play two hole cards

I guess the fact you hold the Ac makes a bit less likely there is a flush out there, but at this level anything goes. I'll let more experienced players comment on your play, I only play a bit of pot limit for fun (the nut camping potential in PLO8 is huge)

Probably just check-fold the flop.

Thats not a good flop for you. Someone has the flush and as has been said... you dont have the flush draw.
gabe: Ive dropped almost 100k in the past 35 days.

Funny - I know you have to play 2 hole cards, of course... but when the flop came 3 clubs and I held the Ac, I instantly thought nut flush.

Don't let hold'em players anywhere near omaha!

I was just messing around at different levels, seeing how they play, and mainly waiting for AA or A2 hands... did pretty well at the low-stakes tables but dropped a whole $5 at this one. Going to have to go back down the mine to earn me another five dollah. Back soon.

Thanks.

TLR is an unknown quantity at this point
 With 5 people seeing the flop someone is bound to hit the flush. Since you hold the Ac you may reprsent the nut flush, but at this level you will get called.

Your str8 is probably not good, and there are 2 people that will ac t after you. I would check/fold the flop

Howover if you want to represent the nut flush bet it like yuo have it - dont minbet and let everyone with 2 pair/set call you bet and see a card for cheap
