Omaha Hi Poker

The two players to the left of the dealer put out blind bets. The player directly to the dealer's left puts out the small blind while the player two to the dealer's left puts out the big blind.

First 4 Cards Delt
Every player is dealt four cards, face down. These are called private cards.

The action, or the first move, falls on the player to the left of the big blind. He can either call the bet, raise it, or fold. Betting continues around the table, clockwise.

The flop
After the betting is completed, three cards are dealt face up in the center of the table, which is referred to as the board. The first three cards are called the flop. These cards are “community cards” meaning everyone can (and will) use them in combination with their own hole cards to make the best hand.

From the flop on, betting begins with the player to the dealer’s left, who can check or bet.

The Turn
A fourth card is dealt face up onto the board. This is called fourth street or the turn card.

Another round of betting.

The River

The final card is dealt face up. This card is also called fifth street or the river.

A final round of betting occurs. The remaining players show their cards. To make their final five-card hand, players must use two of their four hole cards and three of the cards on the board. Players can use any two cards from the hole and any three cards from the board, but it must be exactly 2 from the hole cards and 3 from the board to make the best 5-card hand.
