Community Card Game · Blinds · Phased Individual + Community Deal
Overview
Fusion blends the Omaha hand-formation rule with a unique phased dealing structure. Players receive 2 individual cards before the flop, then gain one new individual card alongside each subsequent community card round. The result: 4 individual cards and 5 community cards by showdown, with the Omaha rule requiring exactly 2 individual + 3 community.

KEY RULE: After the flop, each betting round deals ONE individual card to every player AND one community card simultaneously. Your hand grows from 2 to 4 individual cards across the hand — but you still use exactly TWO individual + THREE community at showdown (the Omaha rule).
The Deal
Pre-Flop: Each player receives 2 individual cards (face down)
Flop: 3 community cards dealt face up
Turn: Each player receives 1 individual card + 1 community card is dealt
River: Each player receives 1 more individual card + 1 final community card
Total: 4 individual cards and 5 community cards per player by showdown.
Hand Formation Rule
Exactly like Omaha — you must use:
Exactly 2 of your 4 individual cards
Exactly 3 of the 5 community cards
Betting Rounds
Pre-Flop: After receiving 2 individual cards
Flop: After 3 community cards
Turn: After each player gets their 3rd individual card + 4th community card

Strategy Tips
Your hand improves mid-round — early folds are less advisable than in Hold'em
Drawing hands (flushes, straights) gain value since you receive new individual cards on the turn and river
Watch how opponents react when they receive their individual turn/river cards — reactions reveal hand strength
Remember the Omaha rule: you cannot use 1, 3, or 4 individual cards
