You need a link like that at first when you are learning and also this thread won't get clogged up with someone asking what is a limp and getting about 8 people answering.

Questions like that fills the thread faster. Ideally the first post of the thread would contain various helpful links, as well as links to the sites where most of us play etc.

After the flop in Omaha or Holdem, what's the most number of outs any one player could have to win the pot (not just split it) assuming he's behind. Just had a hand on Omaha where the other guy flopped a straight but I was still 68/32 favourite due to the number of outs for a better straight or flush, wondered how much higher that could possibly be?

In hold 'em that would be something like:

P1 KdQd
p2 Jc 2s

Flop JdTd 5s

P1 has 6 outs to top pair, 9 outs to a flush and 4 outs to a straight for a total of 19 outs and is favourite. to be ahead by the river.

In omaha there are far too many possibilities for me to work out off the top of my head.

Perhaps I'm just being a poker snob, but for my 2c I'd prefer the thread to be kept for people than have more than half an idea of how to play the game.

*errr that should be 6 outs to a straight for 21 total. (I discounted twice it seems).

I've just started playing some poker online in the last few weeks. Not even close to trying to play for real money though.

I have no ideas about any strategies, which is the main reason I won't play for real money. I've won 1 or 2 play money tournaments. I seem to either win a table, or lose out in the first 2-3 hands that I play.
