Omaha High-Low Split

Welcome to the coolest game on the planet. The same rules as standard Omaha up until the showdown. Then the pot is split equally between the best high hand, and the best qualifying low hand. If there is no qualifying low hand, the high hand wins the entire pot.

Omaha Hi-Low has its own twist. The pot is split equally between the best high five-card hand, and the best qualifying low five-card hand. A five-card hand must include exactly two hole cards and three community cards. If multiple players show the identical best hand, that half of the pot is split evenly between those players. If there is no qualifying low hand, the high hand wins the entire pot.

Straights and flushes do not count against the low, but pairs do. To qualify, no card from the low hand may be above an 8.

Order of play:

1. Each player is dealt four hole cards, face-down. (Your hole cards will appear face-up on your screen, but no one else can see them. We promise.)

2. There is a round of betting, started by the two blind-bets.

3. Three cards, the flop, are dealt face-up to the center of the table. These are community cards that all players use in making their hands.

4. There is a round of betting.

5. A fourth community card, the turn, is dealt face-up to the center of the table.

6. There is a round of betting.

7. A fifth community card, the river, is dealt face-up to the center of the table.

8. There is a final round of betting.
