Greek hold 'em

In professional poker player Doyle Brunson's book, Super/System, this version of poker was referred to as tight hold 'em.

[3][4] Greek hold 'em follows the same rules as Omaha, except that each player is only dealt two cards, same as in Texas hold 'em.

The game was commonly played during the 1960s in Memphis at the Greek club.

Another variant was Spit in the Ocean, both are considered early variations of Omaha.

In the late 1970s, Robert Turner introduced Greek hold 'em to Bill Boyd manager of the Golden Nugget at the time.
