The first simple thing to remember about Omaha Poker at Party Poker is that you use two of the cards held in your hand and three from the board to make your hand.

In Omaha you receive four cards, and you must use exactly two of the four cards to make your hand. This means of course that three of the five board cards must be used.

The action in Omaha Poker plays out very much like Texas Holdem. Four cards are dealt face down to each player and the first round of betting follows with the person left of the big blind beginning. Then five community cards are dealt to the table, after the first three community cards (the flop) are dealt a second round of betting takes place. The game and betting  precedes identically to Texas Hold 'em, with the third  round of betting taking place after the fourth community card ( "fourth street" or "the turn")   Following the completion of action on "the turn", the dealer turns over the last card (known as "The River" or "Fifth Street"). This is the final round of betting. The final hands must include exactly 2 of the player's four cards and exactly 3 of the table's five cards. High hand takes the pot.

There are a total of four betting rounds in Omaha. The first and second rounds are set at the low limit of the tables' stakes structure and the final two rounds are set at the high limit of the structure. Example: If the stakes structure is $5/$10 then the bets and raises would be set at $5 for the first two rounds and $10 for the final two rounds.

It's four bets maximum per player. Betting rounds would consist of a bet and three raises. The final raise is capped and a player has only the option to call or fold once capped.

THE SHOWDOWN

The first person to show their hand is the last person to show strength with a bet or raise. The winning hand is the highest 5-card hand using exactly 2 of the four pocket cards and 3 of the 5 board cards. Should multiple hands tie, the pot is split with any odd amount going to the player closest to the 'D' button's left.
