Omaha Hi / Lo and common Omaha are quite similar. The only difference is that there is a big change in strategy. The basic premise for Omaha Hi / Lo is that there are two winning hands in each game: the best (highest) and worst (lowest) hands that divide the pot. The rest of the game is exactly the same as ordinary Omaha, each player starts with four cards facing down. Five community cards are dealt looking up, and the lowest and highest hands divide the pot. The winning hand must have two cards from its own hand and three community cards. Things get more interesting from now on; for a hand to be rated as low, it cannot have any card higher than 8. Since aces count as high card and low card at the same time, the lowest possible hand is Ace-2-3-4-5. Except in Omaha Hi / Lo, any hand that qualifies as low will not be affected by the sequence it is in or the colors. This creates a very interesting situation: it is possible to qualify at the same time with the highest hand and the lowest hand in the same game. If you win both, you will win the entire pot. The rest is equal to regular Omaha. To verify the highest hands, click here. Omaha Rules: Stakes Stakes depend on the type of game you choose.
