Pot is split between best 5 holecards and best Omaha hand, 2 from hand, 3 from board.
Also known as Svitten or Drawmaha.
There are many variations possible as well, such as triple draw, dealt 6 instead of 5 (best 5 play), high low (3 pots), chicago (highest spade, 3 pots or 4 if high low as well), or even with badugi.
You can also decide not to burn for the draw to decrease reshuffles of muck (sometimes you run out of cards), and you can add in betting rounds (bet-draw-bet on same street) or change the betting rounds around so that it's bet then draw then next street, bet then draw.
You can also add in a draw before the flop, potentially twice!!!
So a lot of possibilities.
Easily the best poker game I have ever played.
