Boulder, Colorado: Pokerbook Press, 1991. BRAND NEW in PERFECT CONDITION. Flat spine. NO creases. NO rubbing. NO fading. Bright, shiny, clean, square and tight. Sharp corners. NO owner's name or bookplate. Fresh and crisp -- obviously never read. First Printing of the First Edition, with a complete number row (10 987654321) on the copyright page. Illustrations throughout. Bound in the original black pictorial wraps. From the publisher: "The popularity of Omaha has spread across the nation and the world. In Omaha, you are dealt four cards and then a total of five cards are dealt face up in the middle of the table which become community cards. Everyone must use three of those cards and two from their hand to make the best five possible cards. This total of nine playable cards makes for lots of action and lots of betting and calling "on the come." The pots are often huge. It takes a bit of getting acquainted with the game because of the rule of using two cards from your hand and three from the board. It is obvious immediately that you need big hands to win in Omaha. With the game now played high and low with the eight qualifier, "building" a hand that wins both ways is by far the most profitable. Because of the split pot, the ace, which can be used both high and low, becomes an incredibly important card.". First Printing of the First Edition. Softcover. New. (vi), 72pp. Great Packaging, Fast Shipping.

About this title

Synopsis

The popularity of Omaha has spread across the nation and the world. In Omaha, you are dealt four cards and then a total of five cards are dealt face up in the middle of the table which become community cards. Everyone must use three of those cards and two from their hand to make the best five possible cards. This total of nine playable cards makes for lots of action and lots of betting and calling "on the come." The pots are often huge. It takes a bit of getting acquainted with the game because of the rule of using two cards from your hand and three from the board. It is obvious immediately that you need big hands to win in Omaha. With the game now played high and low with the eight qualifier, "building" a hand that wins both ways is by far the most profitable. Because of the split pot, the ace, which can be used both high and low, becomes an incredibly important card.
