Super Omaha
A Galaxy Gaming casino adaptation of Omaha, invented by poker author Jeff Hwang, where players fold or raise against the dealer once the flop is revealed.

Rules
Super Omaha deals four hole cards to each player and the dealer, exactly as in standard Omaha (also in this library), with a five-card community board.
After an ante, the flop (first three community cards) is revealed, and players decide to fold or raise 1x to 3x the ante based on how their four hole cards interact with it. The turn and river are then revealed together, followed by a showdown against the dealer's hand.
Showdown: as in standard Omaha, each hand must use exactly two of the four hole cards combined with exactly three of the five community cards — this rule applies to both the player's and the dealer's hand.
Historical note: invented by poker strategy author Jeff Hwang (of High Variance Games) and marketed through Galaxy Gaming.
Strategy notes: Because the entire betting decision happens after seeing the flop (rather than being split across preflop and postflop stages like Ultimate Texas Hold'em), Super Omaha rewards fast, accurate flop-reading — recognizing which two-card combinations from your four hole cards actually connect with the revealed board.
Common house rules
Exactly two hole cards must be used
As in standard Omaha, both the player's and dealer's hands must use exactly two of their four hole cards combined with exactly three community cards — no more, no fewer.
Single decision point, after the flop
Unlike Ultimate Texas Hold'em's multiple raise-sizing stages, Super Omaha has one fold-or-raise decision, made right after the flop is revealed.
A casino adaptation of a home-game classic
Worth noting for a mixed dealer's-choice table: Super Omaha takes the same four-hole-card, exactly-two-used structure from standard home-game Omaha (also in this library) and adapts it into a banked casino table game.
