Re: When is the nuts not the nuts?
When you have 6 people at an Omaha table shoving all in preflop, usually they all have low cards, A2 A3 234 etc. This was again the case, and a high hand like QQJJ will perform just as well. Any hand you end up winning often there will be no low, so just as you shove QQJJ 6 handed in Omaha, to a lesser extent you can shove it in O8 too, but only with lot of other players in on the hand. I don't believe you would have any significant value, but given the pot odds I don't believe you would be losing it either. All comes down to whether you want to gamble or not. I personally think it adds value anyway since having a nice stack will be worth more on the subsequent hands too.
