Omaha holdem or simply Omaha Poker is another version of poker similar to Texas holdem. Each player is dealt four cards and must make his best Omaha Poker hand using exactly two of them, plus exactly three of the five community cards. The poker rules are very similar besides few changes.
As in Texas holdem, three or more suited cards makes a flush but unlike that game to play Omaha Poker a player always needs two of that suit in his hand to obtain a flush.
Yet, two pair for instance does not make a full house for anyone with a single matching card as it does in Texas holdem. Likewise, with three of a kind, a player must have a pair in his hand to make a full house.
