Forced Money
The game is played with a button and blinds.
Dealing Procedure
Each player is dealt five cards face down, followed by a round of betting.
Three community cards are placed face up. This is followed by a round of betting. Then each player in turn discards zero to three cards from their hand. Once all of the discards have been announced, the dealer will deal each player an appropriate number of replacement cards.
One additional community card is placed face up, followed by a round of betting.
One additional community card is placed face up, followed by a round of betting. This is followed by a showdown.
When played as limit, the first two betting rounds are at the smaller limit, and the later two betting rounds are at the larger limit, as in Omaha.
Evaluating the Showdown
The best Omaha high hand (using exactly two cards from the player’s hand and exactly three cards from the board) and the best four-card Badugi hand (using only the player's hole cards) split the pot.
