    Yes, runner runner str8 flush! OK I know I'm only 60:40 on the flop (I figure I wasnt up against KKxx here due to the min raise) but the turn does make me a 97.5% favourite to win. My own fault for 1) Calling a raise with Q7-hammer and 2) Pushing with middle set on a draw heavy board; but it illustrates that Omaha can be a funny old game :) Oh yeah, and this is conclusive proof (as if any was needed) that all online poker is rigged to help players called Caroleq.

    Your better off getting all in with 2nd set on a draw heavy board than a board with no draws!
