Like Texas Hold'em, Omaha is a community card game. But players are dealt four cards instead of two in the beginning.

But players have to use two and only two hole cards combined with three community cards to make the best five card poker hands.

Omaha is often played in in a pot-limit format, meaning the maximum bet is the current size of the pot. This makes the betting action fast paced and exciting.

With four hole cards in Omaha, the flop (the first three community cards) is even more crucial. It can determine whether you have a strong hand, a drawing hand, or nothing at all.
