No doubt I prefer Hol Em. But preference is a personal matter and according to the option of each one.

As with many new players, I got involved (hooked rather) with poker after learning how to play Texas Hold'em. But after tasting Omaha and how much action it had as opposed to traditional Holdem, I immediately changed my favorite poker type... then a few years later I found out that an even crazier version of Omaha existed, 6 card Omaha!! Its pretty fun and all, but it's basically bingo since any starting hand has pretty much the same equity as any other random starting hand.

I don't like Omaha. I prefer NL Hold'em. I usually play in freerolls, and hold'em tournaments have the largest selection of freerolls.

As long as it is poker I have no problem playing its different types of formats. I love poker and its pros and cons.

I only play hold'em. I don't play other games at all and I'm not interested in them. I think in order to achieve good results you need to focus on one direction. And I have already determined this direction for myself.

I prefer hold em, this is a very popular variant, the luck factor is reduced in this variant

A good Omaha player makes twice as much as a good Hold'em player.
But becoming a good Omaha player is twice as difficult as a good Hold'em player. So they say, but I myself do not know how to play Omaha. So I don’t know if this is true or not.

My personal preference has shifted from Hold Em to Omaha. Been playing for little over 3 months now and I can’t get enough! What’s your favorite rendition of poker?
NL Hold'Em is what pleases and challenges me the most. I play Omaha, but not that often.

I also like playing Omaha, but it is easier to find a good Hold'em tournament than Omaha so I often play Hold'em.

Talking about tournaments, I like hold'em better. But in the cash game I prefer pot limit omaha. Sometimes I play draws with an exchange and 7 cards of stud, but it's in the mood :)

Hi.
Basically, I only play hold'em, but sometimes I also have other options. From time to time I like to play Omaha, Badugi, or Horse.
Good luck.

Omaha is a more fun game as you as a player see more action. More hands are playable, more combinations, etc.

I am just better at Holdem so I play that. But Omaha is great, one could say a better version of poker then Holdem. As well more complicated.

I really like both formats, I especially like PLO8 from Omaha, but I don't really like NLO8 because the variance in Omaha is too high due to the four cards dealt, so the game is extremely flop-dependent, so the preflop allin option is practically close to the lottery, because I have AAKK double suited if it's not close to the flop, and let's call preflop all-in with two other hands have to against.
