Let's look now at Pot Limit Omaha. Now the thing to note about Omaha is that it's not played no limit seriously. You might see a Low Buy in No Limit Omaha game on line, but Pot Limit Omaha is pretty much where the action is, where the high stakes is played. So let's look how to do that. Now again, since this is Omaha, you probably not going to raise before the flop. So in this scenario everybody has called the big blind. We're going to burn one and we're going to turn the flop and then the first to act will be the small blind. He looks at his hand, he likes what he sees and he says "raise". Now the minimum bet is two but he wants to raise the pot. So he can actually raise up to his bet plus the pot. So two plus two or six-eight. So he can raise up to ten total chips. Now if the person to his left, the big blind, wants to raise, he's going to say "raise" and if you look at his chips, his call is ten and since he raised the pot he can then put in ten, twenty, twenty-six more. He can put in thirty-six total chips. So for all intense purposes this person will be all in because at this point having bet thirty-six chips there is no way he's going to walk away from his hand. That pretty much explains how to play Pot Limit Omaha.
