My local card room room offers a different Omaha game that changes with not the button but with the dealer. Omaha Hi, Double Board and Straight Omaha. I imagine that Straight Omaha means you need at least a straight to qualify. But I've never played Double Board Omaha-so how does that game work? And are there Youtube videos about it? I've not located any.

This video has some double board feature. Double board is super simple. You have to win both boards of 5 cards to win the full pot. Win 1 board win half.

Well thanx. But my concern is how many big blinds would you need to play this game at the the $75-$150 limit level? Provided you don't suck at Omaha and you wanted to play professionally.:heeeellll

I treat it with the same BB level buyin as I would for Omaha HILOW and really most buy ins I want to buy in for 100bb and have 3-5rebuys available.

What if the rules only allow a buy in of just 5 BBs? And at this point, I don't know the rake of this game.
