Pot-Limit Omaha in PLO
A four-card Omaha variant where players must use exactly two hole cards and three board cards, and the maximum bet is the size of the pot.
What it means at the table
Pot-Limit Omaha gives each player four hole cards, but every final hand must use exactly two hole cards and exactly three board cards.
Why it matters
Most beginner mistakes come from forgetting the exact-two rule or underestimating how often four-card hands connect.
Decision checkpoint
Ask this before money goes in
Table question
Am I using exactly two hole cards and three board cards?
Rule of thumb
Exactly two from hand, exactly three from board; every evaluation starts there.
Table example
If the board has four spades but you hold only A♠, you do not have a flush; you need two spades in your hand.
Leak to avoid
Reading hands like Hold'em and using one hole card, three hole cards, or four board cards.
