A brand-new game combining Hold'em with Omaha
Are you a better Hold'em player than an Omaha player? Are you a better Omaha player than a Hold'em player?
If the two games were fused together somehow, would you want to find out?
Here's how it might look.

Suddenly, leaning on your Hold'em experience, you might start thinking it would be a good idea to win pots pre-flop. You know, before things got all Omaha-ey and complicated later on.
Or, if Omaha was your game, maybe waiting it out would be the better strategy?

It's called Fusion Poker
Fusion is a new game that blends together Hold'em and Omaha.
Fusion is the brand new game coming to PokerStars. Alternative names of 'Holdaha' and 'Omahem' were quickly dismissed.
You start with two hole cards, and a game that looks a lot like Hold'em. The betting doesn't change, and the action continues in the same way.
But after the flop, if you're still in the hand, you are dealt another hole card face-down.
Then a fourth hole card after the turn.

With four hole-cards you now make the best five card hand - using two cards from your hand and three from the board. Just like a normal Omaha game.
(That doesn't sound very 'normal')
Of course, by now there's nothing normal about it. If you've got this far in the hand there's a good chance you have undergone a renaissance of critical poker thinking.
Every street adds a layer of super-charged theory. Every new hole card multiplies the possibilities.
Who knows, it might be so complex that bluffing becomes the only rational option left open to you.
Or, you might just push your knowledge of poker further than you thought possible (or thought necessary).
