What the game is

Omaha gives each player four private cards. Players must use exactly two private cards and exactly three board cards.

Rules of Omaha

• Each player starts with four private cards, also called hole cards.
• Five community cards can be dealt like Hold'em, but Omaha hand construction is stricter.
• For every final hand, Omaha requires exactly two private cards and exactly three community cards. You cannot use one, three, or four private cards.
• The best five-card high hand wins the pot.

Example calculations

• Enter A♠ A♥ K♠ Q♥ against J♠ T♠ 9♥ 8♥ on Q♠ 7♦ 2♣ to compare top set, redraws, and wrap pressure.
• Enter a wrap draw and a made set on the flop to see how many turn and river cards matter.
• Use dead cards to model exposed blockers in live-game study.

Strategy examples

• Omaha equities run closer than Hold'em, so compare strong-looking hands before overvaluing them.
• Study blockers because having key suits or straight cards can change draw value.
• Use board-specific calculations to separate nut draws from dominated draws.
