Omaha Poker rules have such that the game starts with two mandatory bets of the two players sitting to the left of the dealer. And these bets are done in the dark and are called blinds. Their size varies commensurate with the cost of the game. Suppose, if the rates are equal to one or two dollars, then the first player will have to put the small blind - half a dollar, and the second - the big blind - one dollar. These bets are always made before the cards are dealt. After that, each player gets four cards in the dark. Then comes the stage of the game, called preflop. During it the circle of trade is conducted, just on the basis of the four cards dealt, the redemption is not yet laid out.

Omaha Poker rules have such that the trade is as follows: the first player is the player who sits to the left of the person who placed the big blind. In this case, he has the right to bet (bet), fold (pass), skip a move (check), call (raise) and raise (raise). It must be remembered that the size of the raise and the bet itself depends on the version of Omaha poker. Bidding is ongoing until all the players that remain in the game call the bets, but usually it's not more than three laps. The player who placed the big blind has the last word. Now that all bets have been collected into the bank, a draw is placed on the table in the amount of three cards, it is called a flop.

After the phlop, the trade continues, when the bets are leveled and added to the bank, the dealer places the fourth card on the table (the turn). Before the fifth card (river), trading follows the same rules, as well as after it. Next, all the players that remain in the game open the cards. The winner is the one who managed to make the best combination of two of his cards and three common cards of the buy-in.

To determine the order of the first word for each distribution, you just have to go clockwise. Thus, Omaha is a very interesting and fascinating version of poker, which originated from Texas Hold'em. Any self-respecting poker player must know the rules and be able to play it.
