Best PLO Poker Rooms

Total player counts say little about Omaha. A room with 15,000 players can still run a thin PLO lobby at your stake, and a small room can spread plenty of tables where you play. The rows below show what each room offers once you sit down for PLO.

Start with four-card PLO unless you already know Omaha hand selection. With five or six hole cards you get more combinations, bigger draws and more equity running close, so pots get contested more often and results swing harder.

Only some rooms spread the bigger variants. Of the six rooms above, JackPoker and GGPoker run PLO5, and only JackPoker adds PLO6. CoinPoker also runs both. If you want to compare your equity in a spot, use the Omaha calculator.

WPT Global and BCPoker list PLO only, which is fine for four-card players but means a change of room if you move to PLO5. Natural8 lists PLO5 on the GG Network. Guts Poker is the one to try if you want Omaha Hi/Lo.

PLO cash games need a bigger bankroll than Hold'em at the same buy-in. Our bankroll guide suggests 20 to 30 buy-ins for no-limit cash games, so plan on more than that for four-card PLO and more again for PLO5, PLO6 or aggressive tables. Keep extra if you play several tables at once.

Be honest about the size of your sample, too. A winning month can still be a lucky one. The bankroll management calculator shows how likely a downswing is at your win rate before you move up.

Start at the lowest stake that has games. JackPoker and BCPoker both take a $5 minimum deposit, so you can learn the variant cheaply, while WPT Global asks for $35. Keep your Omaha bankroll apart from your Hold'em money so one game's swing doesn't empty the other.

Omaha pots get large quickly, so the cap on rake per hand decides how much you pay. We don't publish cap figures because they change by room and stake, so read the room's rake table before you sit down.

Rakeback then softens the cost. Check whether it's paid in cash, bonus balance or points, and how often. A flat 15% in cash can beat a 30% that you must unlock slowly. Run your own volume through the rakeback calculator.

The six rooms pay differently. JackPoker lists lifetime VIP rakeback up to 20%, WPT Global 30%, BCPoker VIP cashback up to 50%, Guts monthly loyalty cashback from 10% to 30% and GGPoker up to 60% through Fish Buffet. PPPoker pays none of its own. Read the rake and payout terms in the cashier before you choose.

None of the six rooms above lists third-party HUD support. GGPoker has its own Smart HUD built in. Omaha ranges are wide, so stats help less than in Hold'em, but you'll still miss a database for reviewing hands.

If you study seriously, use rooms with hand histories you can export and review them away from the table. Check the terms for your room, because a banned tool can cost you the account.

Hand history is the more useful feature. JackPoker, WPT Global and GGPoker give you hand histories, while BCPoker, PPPoker and Guts Poker don't. If you review sessions away from the table, that should narrow your shortlist before the bonus does.

We open real accounts, deposit, sit at Omaha tables and test withdrawals. Every room gets a score out of 10 built from five areas:

For PLO, games and traffic count for the most, because a room with no Omaha tables at your stake is useless at any rakeback. Rakeback comes next, since big pots make rake the biggest leak. Software matters less here, as HUDs are rare. Read the full methodology.

Before you deposit, ask yourself:

If a room has no Omaha tables at your stake, nothing else on the list can make up for it.
