    What is better Texas Hold'Em or Omaha? If diffrent i.e Pineapple ,5Card Stud ect
    Why do you think its better?
    Do you play for real money or fun? If So whats your biggest Win?

    I like Omaha i think its more skilled to play and more fun.
    I think its better than Hold'em ,pineapple ect because i injoy playing it more than the rest of them.
    I play for real money and for fun i play it for real money more thou.
    My biggest win was $389 pot on a ring game on holdem.

    Just got back from my weekly texas no limit hold em tourney... I got into poker recently and been playing both online and off line, both for chips, fun and money... I enjoy hold em the most i think... Oh and the biggest pot i took was around $50

    Holdem is better in my personal opinion, you can play for fun and not have to think as much as when playing Omaha.

    Texas holdem works best for me. NL is more skill, but I also tend to play at the fixed limit tables. More of a gamble there.

    I like Hold 'em better, but I'd never play for real money. I'm too cheap and risk averse.

    I enjoy Texas Hold'em... I've only played Omaha once with friends and nobody got into it as much.

    I normally don't play with money, usually just for fun. Occasionally we'll put a $5 buy-in and the winner takes all but that's as far as it goes.
