How to play cards in the Omaha game?

This game can be played with two to ten people who attempt to create the best  five cards combination from nine cards. The nine cards are composed of four pocket cards and five community cards. Players are forced to use two pocket cards and three community cards when making their hand. This mix of cards results in especially strong combinations.

Remember that you must be able to place a blind bet and a bet to play Omaha Poker.
  • The game begins with the player to the immediate left of the dealer placing a small blind bet. Then the player to the small blind's left posts a big blind bet. Please note that the dealer changes position each game. The "D" button indicates the dealer's position
  • Each player receives four pocket cards.
  • The player to the big blind's left plays first in the first round. This player can: 
    1. Fold
    2. Bet
    3. Raise
    Please note that the betting is capped at one bet and three raises per player in the first round.
  • Three community cards are dealt in the second round. This is known as the Flop. In the ensuing betting round, players can:
    1. Check
    2. Fold
    3. Call
    4. Raise
  • A fourth community card is dealt in the third round. This is known as the Turn. This is followed by another round of betting.
  • The fifth and last community card is dealt in the fifth round. This card is known as the River Card. This is followed by the final round of betting. The remaining players in the game use two pocket cards and three community cards to create the best possible five-card hands. Please note that a winning hand must include two pocket cards and three community cards.
