Omaha

Shared

Players: 3-10

Initial Deal: 4 cards down to each player.

Betting: After Initial deal betting round. Then after each card set flip.

Play:

Identical to Texas Hold 'Em. Initial deal, bet, then bury the top card and deal three cards on the table. Another round of betting follows. Bury a card and deal one more on the table. Bet then bury one more card and the last card is flipped, a final round if betting ensues but final hands must include exactly 2 of the player's four cards and exactly 3 of the table's five cards.

Winner: High and low hands split, but the low must be 8-high or better (lower) or the high gets it all. Cards speak for themselves.

Variations:
High-Low Split: Players may use all 4 of their cards, splitting them into two groups to form a high hand and a low hand. Cards speak for themselves. As above, but players declare high/low/both.

Lincoln: The lowest shared card is wild (As in Lame-Brain Pete).

Bush League: Common cards are dealt in a cross formation. Common cards are exposed one-at-a-time with betting prior to each exposure and after the last exposure. As in Baseball, 3's and 9's are wild. A four exposed gets everyone an extra card. Players may be required to pay the minimum bet for each exposed wild card.

Wild Kingdom: (Baseball) 3's and 9's are wild. Common wild cards require an additional ante per player. Common 4's get each player an extra card.
