Can someone help at all?

I've been playing Omaha for hours on end in the hopes of getting just ONE of the three new badges... to no avail.

I'm playing in a private room against the robots in the Just For Fun rooms... could I win one like this, or am I doing something wrong?

Any help would be MUCH appreciated.

Btw, so many times I've come close to a straight flush but one card.

no they are very obtainable in the just for fun rooms.  ive got one so far and that is the only way i play is in the just for fun rooms.  veel geluk (good luck for those who dont know dutch)  ;D.

I actually HAVE been playing with no joker card and WITH bonus card.  >:(

Guess I have to keep trying. 

What's really frustrating is that so many times I've almost had the straight flush except ONE card!!

I obviously haven't been as lucky as some of you guys.

Won't give up just yet.

  I got my rising start badge at rank 8. I was lucky as all get-out too. I'm still questing for the other two.

  I would recommend playing in a pvt room with only one other person. Go with low rollers (or whatever you like) other than just for fun. By playing just for fun rooms you are also playing bots and they decrease your winning odds even more. Not to mention, they have a tendancy to fold on you when you have a very promising hand.

  If you don't have a friend that you could one on one with, a double browser is also a blessing for these badges.

That's a Lot of hands! I know you won't give up. I have a feeling you're gonna get badged soon.
Sixteen days straight, 62,000 hands, 7 Ace badges, 2 Flush badges and no Shooting Star badge.

Only played 16 hands and  I got my rising start badge, no 4 aces or flush yet

Well, here's an idea if you have no life (like me).  Simply get a private table and keep sittin and standing till you get the four hole cards.... that's what I did....... O0

can you move up in rank in just for fun, ive been playing omaha for awhile and no badge, i must not be lucky enough, so i probly wont ever get these 3 badges.

[Homer]

I think there are 50 ranks but no badges for them.

[pawnqueen]

Yes, you can move up in ranks in the Just For Fun rooms.

I play on a private table, (bonus card/no wild's) and play all hands that have at least 1 Ace or 2 cards which can make a straight flush.  If any hand I'm dealt doesn't have an Ace (for possible King of Table badge), or cards which can make a straight flush, then I FOLD.  I seem to get through the hands quicker that way, but it does mean I'm not moving up in ranks quickly too.  (Although I don't think that matters when you're just trying to get a badge - correct me if I'm wrong).

Someone mentioned earlier that you can just sit/stand up to try for the the 4 hole cards (Rising Star badge).  I didn't think of that & will give it a try if I can get dealt more hands in the same amount of time.  Thanks for the tip!

Still no Omaha badges for me... but I'm not giving up.

I have faith in you that you will get it soon.

[RocknRollGirl]

75,000 hands for me and no Rising Star badge. Gee, maybe today will be the magic day.

Good Luck Barb, I have not played as many hands as you have, but I have been playing almost non stop and only won the 4 aces badge.  I am not giving up though and will keep playing till I win over those darn tin heads who are driving me crazy, with their crossed eyes and square heads....hahahahaha.

I tried sitting and standing... standing up takes you out of the game room.  >:(

Please explain how you do this.  When I stand up it takes me out of the game room.

[nascar fan]

i tried standing up and sitting down it kicks me out of room to, ive used the auto and it doesnt push the button when you need more tokens.

[pawnqueen]

I wouldn't post something if it didn't happen.

When standing up in a Just For Fun room, it takes you out of the table.

[smiles29]

the secret to not getting booted from table when you stand up is to make sure the box that seys allow watchers is checked.

[smiles29]

you are quite welcome.   ;D

THANK YOU! O0
