- Players
start with four "down" cards.
- As
in Texas Hold'em, players share five "community"
cards (which are dealt face-up in the center of
the table).
- You
MUST use two of your four "down" cards
along with three "up" cards (community cards)on
the board to form your hand.
- Upon
the completion of betting, the best hand wins the pot.
(The pot may also be won by someone betting and
no one calling prior to the completion of the hand.)
To
better help you understand the game, the definition of the
underlined words on this page can be found in Poker Lingo.
Remember:
In Omaha, you MUST use two of your four "down"
cards along with three "up" cards (community cards)
to form your hand.
Basics:
There are four betting rounds in Omaha. In Omaha High and
Omaha 8 or Better, one bet and three raises are allowed
per betting round. To continue to play, players must act
on each betting round (unless they are "all-in").
Betting always proceeds in a clockwise rotation.
Here
is the procedure for Omaha:
1)
Prior to dealing the cards, two blinds (the Small
Blind and the Big Blind) are placed in the pot by the two
players to the immediate left of the dealer (indicated by
the red dealer button). The blinds are put in to start
the action.
2)
Everyone is dealt four "down" cards. The action
begins with the player to the left of the Big Blind folding,
calling, or raising. Play continues with all players
making one of these decisions. This is the first betting
round.
3)
Upon completion of the first round of betting, three cards
are dealt face-up in the center of the table (community
cards known as "the Flop"). This is the second
round of betting. Beginning with this round of betting and
throughout the remaining rounds of betting, the player to
the left of the dealer button acts first. A player
may now Check or Bet (if there is no betting in front of
them). If there is betting and/or raising in front of them,
they may Call, Raise, or Fold.
4)
Upon completion of the action on the "flop," another
card is dealt face-up (known as the "The Turn"
or "Fourth Street"). This is the third betting
round. The size of the bet doubles on this round of betting.
The betting again starts with the player closest to
the left of the button.
5)
Following the completion of action on "the turn",
the dealer turns over the last card (known as "The
River" or "Fifth Street"). This is
the final round of betting.
6)
Upon completion of the final round of betting, the best
hand wins the pot.
Note: The blinds are determined by the size of the game.
