Best Answer

In standard Poker games, like Texas Hold'em and Omaha, each player is typically dealt two private cards (hole cards) and then a combination of community cards is used to make the best possible hand. This results in a 5-card hand for each player.

  1. However, there are variants of poker that use 4 cards, such as "Omaha Hi/Lo" or "Omaha 8 or Better." In these games, each player is dealt four hole cards, and they must use exactly two of them in combination with three of the five community cards to make the best high hand and/or the best low hand. So, while these games involve 4 cards for each player, they still ultimately form a 5-card hand for the purposes of determining the winning hand(s).

It sounds like you are asking about drawing more than three cards in five card draw. In typical casino settings there is no limit on the number of cards you may ask for in draw. Home games may however have a limit of 2 or 3 as more people tend to draw and there is a limited number of cards.

hold a pair in your hand and have the other two cards come out in the community cards. e.g. you hold 99 and the flop is K95 the turn is 2 and the river is 9..... so community cards are K9529 your best hand would be 9999K.
