Omaha high low terminology
The basic terminology used in omaha high low is similar to the terminology used in texas holdem with a few additions. Here's a list of the basic omaha terms:
Quartered: When you share half the pot with a draw on the low pot and someone else wins the high pot. ie high pot gets 50%, you and same player or another player get 25% each with a tie on the low pot. Getting quartered is not a situation you want to find yourself in with omaha high low as you may have contributed 1/3 of the pots chips but only get 1/4 back.
Suited: When two or more of your hole cards are the same suit.
Double suited: When two of your hole cards are one suit and the other two another. This offers twice the chance of getting a flush on the high hand.
The Wheel: (A, 2, 3, 4, 5) With this hand it is possible to win both the low hand and the high hand as a straight or straight flush
Scoop: When you win both high and low hands you are said to scoop the pot.
The nuts: The best hand (unbeatable).
PLO: Pot limit omaha high
PLO8 Pot limit omaha high low
Flop: First three community or board cards
Turn: Forth community card
River: Last community card. Many omaha high low hands are made on the river.
High cards: Ace down through to 10
Middle cards: 7 8 and 9
Low cards: Ace up to 6
