im not sure how omaha works exactly... i was just throwing it out there... u could do 5$ for the best stud hand and 5$ to the worst.... or just do holdem w the flop idea... but that would take longer than a wk... but w the extra $ u could make a bad beat jackpot or something

Keep the ideas coming and once we understand how these contest generally play out we can adjust them accordingly.

Deal 2 card board face down, 5 card max. in hand. Sort of a reverse Texas hold em. Best 5 wins.

What do you think of a Best original photo and or video contest?

This should be a monthly contest to give members plenty of time to create and upload a quality photo.

Announce Hi, Low or Hi/Low
Members have a week to earn 4 cards by answering correct questions
On the last 3 days of contest NDN flops 3 common cards, then 1 card and then 1 card.

If it's a Hi or Low card week then a players 2 best cards are used and a player with less than 4 cards can still compete for best hand.

more fun and less work for everyone

the thrill will be like the lottery every 7 days waiting for that river card
it will be standing room only! if only I could operate a hot dog stand outside

above post/idea would create a weekly thrill for multiple members instead of the current 1/2 way through the week and the feeling of can't possibly win because leader has 9 cards and I have 2

I vote for a winter of weekly thrills

It may sound easier to you, but we don't really have a lot of Omaha players around these parts and I fear we would only confuse everyone an deter them from playing.

Heck, I understand Omaha completely and I'm not even sure I understand your post.

My issues with this are...

1. Very few people are capable of producing videos and posting them on the internet.
2. Almost as many people are incapable of doing the same thing with a photo.
3. With regards to photos, there's really no way to tell which ones are original and which ones aren't.
4. It would be tough to declare a winner if we had some genuinely original photos/videos posted.

A photo of Eejit planking in front of an airplane landing with a t-shirt with the words NDN written on it for all to see would be priceless
