Community Card Game · Blinds · Split Pot (Board A / Board B) · 9 Players Max · 6 Community Cards Per Board
Overview
Double-Board ImPLOcean combines the excitement of two simultaneous community boards with ImPLOcean's extended 6-card structure. Each board receives a flop of 3, a turn of 2, and a river of 1 — for 12 total community cards. Players use their 4 hole cards against both boards, selecting exactly 2 hole cards + 3 community cards per board. The pot splits between the best high hand on Board A and the best high hand on Board B.

The Deal
4 hole cards to each player. Then two separate community boards are dealt simultaneously, each following the ImPLOcean structure:
The Flop: Three cards on each board (6 total)
The Turn: Two cards added to each board (4 total)
The River: One final card on each board (2 total)
The Omaha Rule
IMPORTANT: Players must use EXACTLY 2 of their 4 hole cards + EXACTLY 3 community cards — evaluated independently against each board. The same 4 hole cards are used against both boards.
Split Pot
The pot is divided equally between two winners:
Board A winner: Best five-card hand using exactly 2 hole cards + 3 Board A community cards
Board B winner: Best five-card hand using exactly 2 hole cards + 3 Board B community cards
If the same player wins both boards, they scoop the entire pot.
Betting Rounds
Pre-Flop: After receiving 4 hole cards
Flop: After three cards are dealt to both boards simultaneously
Turn: After two more cards on both boards
River: After the sixth card on both boards
Strategy Tips
Evaluate your hand strength against both boards simultaneously — 12 community cards create enormous hand variety
The double-turn gives extra shots at completing draws on both boards
Hands that work on multiple board textures (suited connectors, high pairs) are especially valuable
Scoop potential — winning both boards — dramatically increases your expected value
The Omaha exactly-2+3 rule applies independently to each board
