Rules of Omaha
Loading ...Omaha is played exactly like Texas Holdem, except that you get four hole cards instead of just two. But, contrary to Holdem, when you put together a five card hand in the showdown, you have to use exactly two of your hole cards with three cards from the board.
The first betting rounds
Omaha is usually played with a small and a big blind, which are posted before the cards are dealt and considered as live bets.
Four cards are dealt face down to each player and the first betting round takes place as usual.
When all players have either folded or called the last bet, the flop is dealt: three cards face up on the board. These cards are community cards, which mean that all players can use them to build the best possible five-card poker hand.
Then the second and third betting rounds take place just like in Holdem. Omaha is mostly played with fixed limit or pot limit, but no-limit Omaha also occur.
The river and the showdown
When the fifth board card has been dealt (the river), the last betting round takes place.
If more than one player remains in the hand when the betting is over, there’s a showdown. The player who put in the last bet or raise and was called shows his or her cards first. The other players then show their cards in clockwise order. If they don’t want to compete for the pot, they can fold their hands without showing.
The player who can build the best possible five card hand using two hole cards and three board cards wins the pot. If several players have the same hand, they split the pot equally
Note that the cards that are not included in the five card hand are neglected. They play no role when deciding which hand won. In the same way, different suits do not have different value.
Some peculiarities of Omaha
With four hole cards instead of two, you may think there would be twice as many two-card combinations as in holdem, but there’s actually six times as many. This is what makes Omaha very different from Holdem, after all.
With a hand like A-K-Q-J, you can form six decent two-card hands: AK, AQ. AJ, KQ, KJ and QJ. Of course, this improves your chances of hitting the flop very much compared to Holdem.
But your opponents’ chances also improve. In Omaha, the poker hands that people show down are usually much better than in Holdem, on average. You need to adjust to this. Stop moving all in with bottom two pair, and such.
You also need to understand that if one of your hole cards doesn’t connect with the others (a hanger), your starting hand is much weaker. A hand like A-K-Q-7 has only three decent two-card hands, AK-AQ-KQ, so in a sense it’s half as strong as A-K-Q-J.
Since your opponents will often have many kinds of hands working on the flop, if you hit it good you usually need to protect your hand. Slowplaying is often much more dangerous in Omaha than in Holdem.

Buy-in more than necessary.
Loading ...If you’ve been doing your homework, you’ll know that you should always sit in with at minimum 20 times the big blind at any poker table. In the realities of online poker, this should be more along the lines of at least 40 times the BB. Personally, I like to sit down with practically 100x the BB. You should think about doing this too. Why? First, don’t ever be in the position of holding the nuts and not having enough money to raise the pot. I’ve seen this happen too many times, where a guy will have flopped a full house in a $3/6 game, but only have $12 in his bankroll. He could have made a killing if it weren’t for the fact he was playing with a small stack.
DON’T LET THIS HAPPEN TO YOU!
If you are worried about losing your money, you should stop playing poker, switch tables or take a break. Second reason to buy more than is necessary, is for intimidation factor. Opinions may differ, but faced off against a big stack, my feelings are that a good amount of players (but not all) show a bit more respect (read: fear) and will play accordingly – which is to your benefit. Now, don’t read this as buying in for $1,000 in a $1/2 game, because then people will think you are just nuts, but $400.. now we’re talking.
