How to play Omaha Poker

The primary visible difference between Omaha poker and Texas Hold’em is that the players in Omaha are each dealt four cards, rather than two. This results in the perceived confusion of the game. However, in Hold’em, you can use both, one, or none of the cards in your hand with the community cards on the table to make the best five card hand. In Omaha poker, you must use exactly two of the cards in your hand with three community cards to make your five card hand.

Because four cards are dealt to each player in Omaha, the game involves quite a bit more action than most Hold’em games. In Omaha poker, some players are trying to make the highest hand, while others are trying to make the lowest, and some may be trying to take down the whole pot. With so many card combinations, more players seem to find a hand that they feel is worth playing, resulting in more chips on the table, and thus, fast-paced, action-packed games.
