+QA- Jordan asks about OHL Software
Hi Annie,
Two quick OHL questions for you—
1) Is there any decent software for this game? I know you can play it online at a couple of sites, but what about poker programs you can simply load onto your machine without having to go on the Internet, etc.?
2) Would you say OHL is the most complex form of poker (that is, among the dozen or so “popular” forms played in casinos these days)? I’ve heard a lot of people say this and would like to know your thoughts.
Thanks so much, Jordan
Hi Jordan,
Wilson Software makes a good Omaha high-low split program. I’m sure you can find it if you hunt for it online. As for whether it’s the most complex form of poker, I wouldn’t say that. It may be one of the most complicated, but a lot of your decisions are really easy, because it’s very much a game of “best hand wins.” Still, it’s never a bad idea to expand your repertoire of poker games you can play and master, so definitely go ahead and check it out. One thing: Around here, we refer to it as Omaha/8, short for Omaha high-low split, eight or better for low.
