I play NLTH the most, but I love to play PL omaha. It’s full of action and it’s really fun to play

Omaha is fun

I like both but Omaha is more fun because any given hand holds a lot of possibilities since you're dealing with 4 cards instead of 2.

I do not know how to play Omaha and so my choice is obvious - it's Texas Hold'em, maybe if I spend some time Omaha then I would have liked this kind of game but I do not want to waste time on Omaha

At the moment I like only Texas. Perhaps this is only because I played very little in Omaha.

I've just made a post about how dramatic Omaha can actually be comparing to Holdem and i think that's the main reason why i seem to almost always choose Holdem over Omaha. I can't really say that i never play Omaha, i do, but only when i try to stay awake or i'm looking for more actions at the table, instead making myself some coffee, i join a Omaha tournament and i'm wide awake :)

I only played omaha with playmoney and its very fun game..i never played real money mtt or cash game omaha(i only played twice 1$ spin) becouse im still fish to this game and there is a lot of coinflip flops so i think it takes a lot of skill to play real money omaha and i dont have so big bankroll to spend money on that...stil i find omaha realy fun to play so definitely i will try omaha mtt one day



I agree with analize, after all we should be comfortable when it comes to Poker:):):):)

I enjoy both forms of poker, but I feel Holdem takes more skill, whereby Omaha has more luck than skill ..... just my opinion

Omaha shit, Hold'em is a classic, and that's all, you can come up with 100,000 games but this can not be compared with the first invented game

Hold'em I still have not been able to adapt my way of playing to Omaha. I just do not care to play.

Hi there.I like both games but i prefer omaha.In omaha game ,from nowhere you may got the nutts.You need a lot of chips to play a good omaha and make some bluffs.4 cards give you more combinations and you can call for more outs.

HOLD OR OMAHA

I prefer Holdem because the game has more frequencies bluff and various plays like catch bluffer and reverse implied odds

The same can be in Omaha but I think Omaha is much more odds and hand strength a more mathematical game and decreases the frequency of bluff' therefore side pots are more rewarding in Omaha which causes a game of emotion when pulls a pot

Still enjoying more Holdem the range of possible moves

I find omaha to be more stressful for me and don't enjoy it as much as hold em.My choice is hold em and if i do play omaha there seems to be more insurance in hi lo.

I love to play position, stack size advantage and post flop. PLO rarely finds players all in before the flop but allows stack and position advantages more than holdem as the pot builds. Calculating outs is easier in HE but pays off in both games if done correctly. I normally do better in PLO because you find a lot of players who stay in with crap hands that would only pay off in HE

I see this thread has been revived so I'll put my opinion in here as well. I assume most people here will say Hold'em and I would have to agree. I was raised with holdem, that is "poker" to me due to the generation I grew up playing with. I do still love switching it up to a different game occasionally though, and when I do Omaha is usually my go-to over stud or the different ones. Omaha is alot of fun with a lot of big hands being played and will always have a special place in my heart. But day-to-day, steady grinding, blow my entire bankroll, straight up, holdem.
