What is the true smoke low in Omaha?

I play one circle where it is A-2-3-4-6. Is this right

Others play A-2-3-4-5.

In the casino does "the wheel" qualify for low or is it ranked as a straight??

Online and at casinos, the wheel is the nut low. It also is a straight for a high hand.

you could play a variation where the nut low is the 6 low but in Omaha hi-lo the lowest hand is the A-2-3-4-5

A2345 is the nut low hand in all low or hi-lo games (Omaha Hi-Lo, Razz and Stud Hi-Lo), straights do not count

The only exception is 2-7 lowball, where 2-3-4-5-7 is best (A is considered high and straights count)

I have never seen a game where A-2-3-4-6 is best low
