  • Omaha

    • Similar to Hold’em, but with a twist: you get four hole cards, and only two of them make up your final hand.

    A couple of variations of Omaha Poker exists:

    In Omaha Hi, the high hand scoops the pot; in Omaha Hi-Lo, the pot is split between the highest hand and the best-qualified low hand. If there is no hand that qualifies, then the high hand get it all.

  • 7 Card Stud

    • This is a traditional poker game, in which each player is dealt two face down cards and one face up card. After a betting round and the “bring in” (which is a bet made by the person with the smallest hand showing), the following three cards are dealt face up, and a better round follows after each deal. The final card in 7 Card Stud is dealt face down.

    There are a few variations of this game: In 7 Card Stud Hi, the high hand wins the pot. In 7 Card Stud Hi-Lo (also known as “Eight-Or Better”), half of the pot goes to the lowest qualified hand.
