As most poker games are surrounding the birth of Omaha, but we can tell you one thing with absolute certainty: The game was not invented in Omaha, Nebraska. Some things are deceiving. Despite popularity of Omaha’s in casinos thirty years ago, similar games were staples of home games for quite some time, and were known by a variety of names. There were versions in which players were dealt four private cards — just as they are in Omaha today — and others in which players received five cards. The five-card form of Omaha limits the number of participants to eight, and while that may not be a drawback for most home games, it’s an important issue for casino poker, where nine-player or ten-player tables are standard for most games.

Poker Etiquette

• Act In Turn
• Keep Your Cards in Plain Sight
• Discussing Hands in Play
• Turn Your Hand Face Up At the Showdown
