Omaha is a popular variant of poker that’s similar to Texas Hold’em, but with one key twist: players get four hole cards instead of two, and they must use exactly two of them with three of the five community cards to make their best five-card hand.
That extra complexity creates more action and bigger hands, but also demands more strategy. The most common version is Omaha Hi (just the best hand wins), but another popular form is Omaha Hi-Lo (or Omaha 8 or Better), where the pot is split between the highest and lowest qualifying hands.
Omaha is known for its wild swings and deep strategy—especially post-flop.
Omaha is like Hold’em’s wilder cousin—more cards, more possibilities, and more chances to trap yourself or your opponents.
