Omaha or Texas Hold’em?

Friday, March 6, 2009 - ProductMan

Everyone loves a good debate. Whether it’s the battle of the spoon vs. the fork, ale vs. lager, or The Beatles vs. The Stones, who can resist getting wrapped up in a heated war of words and pulling out all the stops for their favorite? When the argument starts, it seems like everybody not only has an opinion, but contends to be some sort of authority.  I guess there’s nothing wrong with a little loyalty and passion.

There’s certainly no shortage of heated debates in poker.  We all love quarreling over strategy, recounting old hands, and offering expert opinions on endless what-if situations, but there is another argument unfolding on the felt and it is really just a matter of personal preference.  Which do you prefer, Texas Hold’em or Omaha?  Even though Texas Hold’em deserves its legendary status and top billing on TV and at major events, I’ve always found Omaha to be more refined, almost like the natural evolution of poker. Where do you like stacking your chips?

Some players like to stay in their comfort zone.  If you haven’t yet taken advantage of our Omaha tables, you can access them in the lobby.  Just click on the “Omaha” tab located under the “Games” tab or browse through our scheduled and sit and go Omaha tournaments.   You can choose from Omaha High and Omaha Hi-Lo.  Learn the ropes at our free tables or find a game at all stakes.

Let us know what you think of all our games.  How do you like our offerings? What in particular do you like about them? Which games do you prefer? What do you want the future of poker to hold?

Let your voice be heard by voting in the poll below, and/or posting your opinions right into the blog.  You have the power to help shape our games. This would be the time to take a stand, or at least let the world know where you like to sit!
