Good Hands for Omaha Poker Part 1

You know in poker, no matter the game variance. It is important to know what a good starting hand is, and what a bad starting hand is. The thing about Omaha, whether its fixed limits or pot limit, is that hope seems to spring eternal. Because you get four starting cards and you can use your best two for the given board.

If you're someone who plays a little loose in Texas Holdem, when you sit down and play Omaha Holdem, you need to play really tight. Let?s talk about a couple of good starting hands. It?s important to note that there are as many as more than thirty good starting hands for pot limit Omaha. Because you are starting with four cards.
