Phil Ivey has been labeled as the number one poker competitor on the planet by most of the top-ranked professionals. Phil Ivey was born in Riverside, CA and moved to New Jersey before his first birthday. His papa taught Phil penny-ante Five-Card Stud poker. From that point on, he was addicted to poker and wanted to discover whatever he could about the game. He routinely would tell his elders that he was going to be a professional poker player. Phil didn’t permit the detrimental feedback from other people annihilate his goal of being one of the greatest poker competitors on the planet.
Phil began competing seriously after acquiring a fake ID by the name of Jerome. He sharpened his skills at the casinos in Atlantic City. The initial few years for him were a learning experience and winning wasn’t a regular outcome at the time. He made his mark at the 2000 World Series of Poker where he made 2 final tables and came away with his first WSOP bracelet, in a $2, five hundred Pot-Limit Omaha event. At the closing table he defeated a number of the well known professionals which includes "Amarillo Slim" Preston, David "Devilfish" Ulliot, and Phil Hellmuth, Jr.
Phil decided to take his game to the next level and moved out west to Las Vegas. He continues to participate in in "The Big Game" at the Bellagio with the greatest players in the world. Ivey credits his success to dedication and an immeasurable love for the game of poker. Phil says that he is picking up skills every day and is incredibly abashed about his accomplishments. He knows he makes mistakes every single session of poker and constantly strives to get better.
Although Phil has won some big-time tournaments, he prefers winning money games on a regular basis.

Omaha Hi-Lo (also known as Omaha/8 or better) is often times seen as one of the most difficult but favored poker games. It’s a game that, even more than normal Omaha poker, invites play from all levels of players. This is the primary reason why a once obscure game, has expanded in popularity so amazingly.
Omaha 8 or better begins like a regular game of Omaha. Four cards are handed out to each player. A round of betting follows where gamblers can bet, check, or fold. Three cards are handed out, this is known as the flop. Another round of wagering happens. Once all the players have either called or dropped out, an additional card is revealed on the turn. Another sequence of wagering ensues and then the river card is revealed. The gamblers will need to make the best high and low 5 card hands using the board and hole cards.
This is the point where some entrants get flustered. Contrasted to Texas Hold ‘Em, where the board can make up every player’s hand, in Omaha hi lo the player has to utilize exactly 3 cards on the board, and exactly two hole cards. Not a single card more, not a single card less. Contrary to regular Omaha, there are two ways a pot could be won: the "higher hand" or the "lower hand."
A high hand is just what it sounds like. It is the best hand out of every player’s, regardless if it is a straight, flush, full house, etc. It is the same notion in almost all poker games.
A lower hand is more difficult, but certainly opens up the action. When determining a low hand, straights and flushes don’t count. A low hand is the weakest hand that can be put together, with the lowest value being A-2-3-4-5. Since straights and flushes don’t count, A-2-3-4-5 is the lowest value hand possible. The lower hand is any 5 card hand (unpaired) with an 8 and smaller. The lower hand takes half of the pot, as just like the higher hand. When there is no low hand presented, the high hand wins the whole pot.
Although it seems complicated initially, after a couple of hands you will be able to get the base subtleties of the game with ease. Since you have individuals wagering for the low and wagering for the high, and since such a large number of cards are being used at once, Omaha 8 or better offers an amazing collection of wagering options and seeing that you have numerous individuals battling for the high hand, and many trying for the low hand. If you like a game with a considerable amount of outs and actions, it’s worth your time to play Omaha 8 or better.
