Omaha Hold’em

♣ Poker Guide  ♣ Poker History  ♣ Poker Variants  ♣ Hand Rankings  ♣ Video Poker

Omaha hold'emAfter Texas Hold’em, Omaha Hold Em’ is the most widely played poker variant in casinos. It could be argued that Omaha is a derivation of Texas Hold’em, but since it’s origins are unknown, this can’t stated with any certainty. It’s a community card game which means that players share the cards which are placed face-up in the centre of the table.

The aim of Omaha is to create the strongest five card hand according to standard poker high rankings; it’s individual feature is that the hand must consist of two hole cards and three of the community cards. It’s played with blinds so the players to the left of the dealer will stake the small blind and big blind respectively.

Omaha Rules

After the blinds have been laid, the dealer distributes four cards face down to each player and there now follows a round betting during which players can:

  • Fold – discard the card
  • Call – match the biggest bet placed so far
  • Raise – increase the bet

The flop, turn and river now follow, all of which are followed by another round of betting, assuming there are at least two players remaining in the game:

  • The Flop – The dealer places three cards face-up on the table and another betting round takes place.
  • The Turn – The dealer places one card face-up on the table and a betting round takes place.
  • The River – The dealer places a final card face-up on the table and a final betting round gets underway.

Now the showdown takes place in which the remaining hands are compared according to standard high poker rankings. The hands must consist of two cards from the player’s hand and three from the community set.

The above rules refer to the version of Omaha played to high rankings but Omaha Hi/Lo can also be played in which players try to make the best high hand and low hand (according to Lowball hand rankings).
