How to play Poker Omaha - game rules
Card sets
In a poker game, players use all 52 cards. Basically speaking, a game of poker depends on the value of the cards in hand and on the table. According to this value, players bet money or fold and give up their hand. According to this value, players bet the money or quit the deal. The player who has the best cards in hand wins. The lowest card set is HIGH CARD. It happens when there is no set described below:
ONE PAIR - happens when a player has two figures of the same value in his hand, for example two kings, two tens, two aces etc. | |
TWO PAIRS - happens when a player has a pair of the same figures twice, for example two kings and two aces, two threes and two tens etc. | |
THREE OF A KIND - as the name says, it happens when a player has three cards of the same value, for example three aces. | |
STRAIGHT - five cards (with different suits) which are grouped one after the other, for example 7,8,9,10,J. | |
FLUSH - five cards with the same suit, for example A,J,10,7,2. | |
FULL HOUSE - a set of PAIR and THREE OF A KIND, which means for example K,K,A,A,A. | |
FOUR OF A KIND - as the name says, it happens when a player has four cards of the same value, for example four kings or four aces and so on. | |
STRAIGHT FLUSH - the strongest set in game. It is five cards in the same suit which are grouped one after another, for example A,K,D,J,10 of spades.
ROYAL FLUSH - A straight flush which goes from 10 to Ace. The best possible hand in poker. |
In the event that both players have sets with the same value, for example two pair- Aces over Kings, the value of the fifth card (kicker) is decisive. If those cards also have the same value, there is a draw (chopped pot).
