This link should help you:

Edit: I found this video on Youtube:

I didn't watched it though but judging by comment section should be good enough


here in silver member area:
Personally, I didn't like Omaha very much. Probably too complicated a game... I'm still dealing with NLH. But the video is good, everything is clearly explained. I recommend watching it at x2 speed :)

As I don't know much about this game mode, can someone explain how it works and give me some tips, so I can beat you lol. :cool::cool::cool::cool::cool:
The main thing to remember in Omaha is that in order to make a hand you have to use 2 of the 4 cards you are dealt, There is a mistake some newbies make and that is after the 4 cards are dealt they think that holding trips or 4 of a kind you cannot be beaten, Not So! in fact once I was dealt 4 Aces, looked good but it is a terrible hand in that when you reach the river you are still only playing a pair of Aces, because you have to use 2 cards and only 2.
Nice hands to have are double suited connectors like A,K,/A,K, times 2 suits because you have the opportunity to make all kinds of hands like Straights, Flushes, Trips, Full House, Quads and even Royal Flushes.
It takes a while to get a grasp of the game, but it is always best to remember that if the board runs out with 4 suited cards and you are holding a bare Ace in that suit, Unlike Holdem you have not made the nut flush because you MUST use 2 cards from your hand.
I would suggest trying fun money games first in order to get a grip of the game or watch a few "Twitch Streamers" that specialise in mixed games.
It is a great game to get into, unfortunately not as popular as Holdem.

How many hands have I lost, forgetting about this two-card rule... Indeed, it's hard to regroup when playing different games. Not so much difficult as just forgetting. I should probably set aside 1 month to play only Omaha.
