About Pot Limit Omaha Poker
In Pot Limit Omaha, know as PLO, each player is dealt four hole cards, which are dealt face down.
You have to use exactly two of them along with three from the five community cards to make your best five-card hand.
With four cards dealt to each player pre-flop, the game offers a unique strategy compared to No Limit Hold’em. Players have more possible combinations of hands to choose from. This can make the game more complex and strategic, as players must consider all of the possible combinations they can make with their four hole cards and the five community cards.
How to Play
Two Ways to Win
Showdown
Players continue to check or bet through the flop, turn, and river rounds. After the last betting round on the river is done, everyone reveals their hands. The winner is determined using No Limit Hold'Em hand rankings, which you'll find listed below.
Out-Betting Your Opponents
You can win the pot without a showdown by betting or raising in a way that makes everyone else fold. This strategy is called 'out-betting' and can work whether you have a strong hand or are bluffing. With a strong hand, you're encouraging calls from weaker hands. When bluffing, you're making others think you have a strong hand, even when you don't.
