Texas Hold'em

The basics of the game are easy to understand if you are familiar with Texas Hold'em. The betting rules are exactly the same as the ranking of hands. Play Texas Hold'em Poker in the World Series Of Poker.

But there is one big difference - the number of cards in hand. In Texas Hold'em only two cards, but in Omaha you get four. This means that you have more potential combinations of hands to create the best hand with his hole cards and board cards.

But also remember that you use two cards from your hole cards to its final five-card hand. In Texas Hold'em you can choose to use a single card, or even play at the table (without using cards from your hand). This is not possible in Omaha.

Obviously, making a hand four aces as a starting hand wrong, though it may look good. Instead, you can search for hands with both immediate value and a lot of potential drawings.

A good example of a hand like Ah Ac is 10h. This part begins with a pair of aces and has several ways you can improve to a straight or flush. Indeed Ass - Ass - Ten jack- double posts is the third best starting hand Omaha Hi is possible.

Remember, there are only two differences between Hold'em and Omaha:

Each player is dealt four cards in Omaha (instead of two in Hold'em)
