Texas Hold ‘Em Poker
One of the reasons that so many poker tournaments feature the Texas Hold ‘Em Poker variation is that the game focuses as much on strategy as it does on luck. Having the best hand doesn’t always guarantee you a win – the winners are generally those who execute their strategy in the best fashion. The goal of a game of Texas Hold ‘Em is to gain the most chips. You accomplish this with your wagers – betting occurs twice, both before and after the cards are revealed.
As in a traditional game of poker, during each betting round, you need to put the same number in the pot as the other players in order to remain in the game. Then, when everyone shows their cards, the best hand wins. Alternately, you might win if the other players “fold” before the cards are revealed.
In Texas Hold ‘Em, you can achieve a 5-of-a-kind hand, which is the best hand possible, if the deck includes a joker/wild. Otherwise, the hands are ranked in order:
- Royal Flush
- Flush
- Full House
- Straight
- Four of a Kind
- Straight Flush
- Three of a Kind
- Pair
- High Card
The Texas Hold ‘Em Poker variation differs from other types of poker in that:
- In Texas Hold ‘Em Poker , the deal involves 2 hole cards plus 5 face-up cards whereas in traditional games, each player receives 5 face-down cards.
- In a traditional game of five-card Draw poker, there are two betting rounds whereas in Texas Hold ‘Em Poker, there are 4.
- Texas Hold ‘Em Poker winners combine their two hole cards with their 5 face-up cards to create the best 5-card hand. In traditional poker, players make their best hand using their 5 face-down cards
Omaha Poker
Omaha Poker is similar to Texas Hold ‘Em but there are some significant differences.
- The initial deal involves 4 hole cards for each player. Whereas, in Texas Hold ‘Em, a player can use any combination of their two hole cards with their 5 face-up cards, in Omaha poker, players must use two of their four hole cards with three of their 5 face-up cards to make the best 5-card hand.
- With the increased number of face-down cards, there are more possible hand combinations so the hand values are higher. That means that you’re more likely to see the high hands (full houses, flushes, straights, etc) when you play Omaha poker.
- There are both Pot-Limit Omaha Poker games and Limit Omaha betting structures which affects the potential pot sizes and betting strategies.
Omaha Hi Lo Poker
Omaha Hi Lo Poker is similar to Omaha poker except that in Omaha Hi Lo, the pot is split between the best qualifying low hand (using different hand ranking rules for the low hand) and the best high hand.
