OMAHA HI-LO 12 of 80

I was sitting at 9th with 12 left and I was dealt A234 with the ace suited to spades. I flopped a nut flush draw and a nut low draw and I couldn't get off the hand. Neither hit and I was casualty. It seemed like a good gamble, but maybe it was foolhardy. I don't have enough experience in the game yet to know. A win would have put me in 4th or 5th place.

The game is really volatile. I lost a $350 cash game pot at the river yesterday when my opponent hit his one-outer. I flopped top set, filled up on the turn and then that same 7 card hit at the river sending me to a barrel and suspenders. He made the mistake of playing lower full house that will usually win a little or lose a lot.
