Omaha Rules
How to Play the Game
Note: To play Omaha Poker you must have enough credits
to place a blind bet and a bet.
The Players to the left of the Dealer begin the game by
posting blind bets. The Player on the Dealer's left posts
a small blind bet, and the Player on the Small Blind's left
posts a big blind bet. Note: The Dealer's position at the
table changes after every game. The dealer button (D) shows
the Dealer's position at the table.
Four pocket cards are dealt to each Player.
In the first round, the Player to the Big Blind's left
plays first and can either:
· Fold
· Bet
· Raise
Note: In the first round, betting is capped at one bet
and three raises per Player.
In the second round, three community cards are dealt. This
is called the Flop. A round of betting follows and Players
can either:
· Check
· Fold
· Call
· Raise
In the third round, a fourth community card is dealt. This
is called the Turn. Another round of betting follows.
In the fourth round a fifth and final community card is
dealt. This is called the River Card. The final round of
betting follows. The remaining Players then use two of their
pocket cards and three of the community cards to create
the best five-card high hand possible.
Important: Winning hands must consist of two pocket cards
and three community cards.
Tips
To improve your chances of winning, use the following strategies:
Watch out for the low cards. You are looking for a high
hand only.
As there are five community cards to choose from, Straights
and Flushes are common.
