PokerStars launches Omaha Spin & Go

PokerStars has moved to expand its range of Spin & Go services with the launch of new Omaha versions of the game.

Pot Limit Omaha games will feature buy-in levels of $1, $3, $7 and $15 and run under the lottery-style Sit-and-Go format.

Players will start with 500 chips and enter a randomly drawn prize pool worth between two and 10,000 times their buy-in.

“Omaha is a highly enjoyable poker variant and was quite high up on our players' request list to deliver it as a Spin & Go,” PokerStars’ director of poker operations and innovation, Severin Rasset, said.

Lex Veldhuis, a Pro member of Team PokerStars, added: “Omaha is just perfect for Spin & Go; there will be a lot of action because you can play so many hands, but it's also really hard to knock people out in PLO.

“This will make for some very intense situations when the multipliers get high.”
