I like Omaha more... whether its PLO or PLO8. For me, Omaha is a very ABC game to me. I understand where people complain about the variance but that's just how the game goes. It teaches you discipline to fold which can be applied to your NLHE game. Plus, its seems like not as many people really understand how to play Omaha which gives you a great opportunity to make money.

Hold'em is a much simpler game, what does anyone gain from weak hands, since Ohama is a little more complicated, will hardly gain only pair or two pair. For those who understand the game, it's a great opportunity to make money and get away a bit of the crazy betting everything all the time. Not to mention that major tournaments Omaha, paid sometimes even more than texas hold'em. How about to risk?


I say I do, I'm a fan already different varieties OMAHA, especially I like Omaha Hi / lo, but unfortunately only studying these varieties can say - descent've won a few times just in omaha satelite pay once've won $ 27 - maybe because I convince to variety omaha hi / lo - to explain the CORE this variation of it consists in finding two different sequences - one is standard as in Hold 'em - the second is the layout of the so-called 2 to 8 where as the weakest card - and we are already about low hand -excluding straights
Omaha Hi/Lo is played with an ‘8-or-better’ qualifier, which means that a low hand must consist of five different cards - ranked eight or below - to be eligible to win the low portion of the pot. Low hands in Omaha Hi/Lo are determined in exactly the same way they're determined in 7 Card Stud Hi/Lo. If there is no qualifying low hand, the high hand wins the entire pot.
I like omaha and holdem -Omaha is more complex and more difficult - but how are I understand it a little addictive begins to be strongly
it is worth summarizing start playing Omaha in my opinion;)

I prefer Omaha and all it's different variations. It's more complicated but it's not that hard to learn. I find that there is more action with Omaha and the games actually go quicker. The biggest mistake hold-em players make in Omaha is to play it like Holdem. There's a big difference in what's considered a good starting hand. Fold those trip Jacks in your hand, you've only got one out now.

Omaha has a lot more action so i prefer to play that. 5 card Omaha is even better as most hands you get tempt you into playing.

both, but I think that I like a little more play omaha, because I like to have more opportunities to get a better hand and can be a little more difficult

Hold em has way to many choices for it not to be my choice.
I like Razz too. Wish we had more players for it. There is never enough games about.

I'm constantly in Hold'em. This is probably because this type of poker the most extended ones in the world. A wide selection of tournaments. All of the major events of poker are the same Hold'em. I tried to play Omaha Hi-Lo, and I do not really like this kind of poker. Here most izberatelnost combinations.

I play them both.

Holdem is the most popular, In Omaha you get more action.

I love them both.

I like Omaha more then Hold'em because it is harder to play! I like all variations of poker besides draw because I think it depends more on luck

What kind of poker do you prefer?

For me the most interesting is NL Hold'em it's also very easy. I like five cards Omaha too. Tell me about you?

I been learning 7 card stud and the variations and it's really fun and interesting to play since it's different from hold em and it opens a lot more strategies when playing with other people.

aside from that, Hold Em has been my main game and I don't know very much about Omaha (I can kinda play it but not really)
