Omaha Manager Brings Needed Functionality to Poker Variant

One of the major advantages of playing online has always been the use of tracking and analysis software to help you improve your poker game not only through statistical analysis, but also through real time adjustments based on what your opponents are doing. Since Texas Hold ‘Em has been the major game of the online poker boom, many of the different software companies have focused on creating programs that are Hold ‘Em specific. With more and more people starting to branch out into other variants like Omaha however, the need has arisen for software that is specific to that poker variant.

Omaha Manager is the newest and best software release that fills that particular void. Using the Omaha Manager software, you can now have all of the statistical analysis, graphing and real time analysis trends right at the tip of your fingers to use whenever a new hand has been completed. Omaha Manager has support for both Omaha and Omaha/8, allowing the all around Omaha player the chance to use an online poker stats tracking software that is as powerful as anything that is currently available on the market for Texas Hold ‘Em.

The need for such a program became evident when more and more industry analysts used their own forecasts to project that Texas Hold ‘Em might be getting to a point of peak interest. In other words, the number of people exiting online poker or alternatively switching from Hold ‘Em to another online poker variant as their primary was larger than the number of people entering Hold ‘Em games for the first time. Omaha has become the beneficiary of a large amount of the Hold ‘Em fallout and since online poker as a whole is still growing rapidly, it shows that even though Hold ‘Em and Omaha are still growing slow relative to their current numbers, the absolute number of people they are both getting is still remarkably high.

Before the release of Omaha Manager, the best software package available was the Omaha version of Poker Tracker 2. Poker Tracker is a decent software setup, but the Omaha version was obsolete and understaffed, both of which contributed to its ultimate demise.
