What is Bomb Pot?
A Bomb Pot is a thrilling poker format designed to create immediate bigger pot action. In this game, every player at the table must contribute a fixed amount to the pot before the cards are dealt, ensuring a large pot right from the start. With no pre-op betting, the action begins instantly, making for unpredictable and fast-paced gameplay.

- 3X Action: Each Bomb Pot hand promises 3X the usual action, providing players with an intense and highly engaging poker experience.
Bomb Pot Poker Variants Available on PokerHigh
The Bomb Pot feature is available in two of the most popular poker variants:
- Texas Hold’em
- PLO 6 (Pot-Limit Omaha with 6-hole cards)
These variants, already known for their dynamic strategies, are taken to the next level with Bomb Pot.
How to Play Bomb Pot
- No Pre-Flop Betting: When triggered, every player at the table contributes an equal, predetermined amount to the pot. The game skips the pre-op betting round, with players going straight to seeing the op cards. This change keeps the action fast paced.
- Two Boards: In Bomb Pot hands, two sets of community cards are dealt instead of just one. Players can win all or part of the pot based on their hands for each board, creating a more complex and exciting game.
- Standard Betting Resumes: After the two separate set of op cards are revealed, regular betting rounds follow (op, turn, and river), just as in traditional Hold’em or PLO 6.
- Bigger Pots from the Start: Players need to adjust their strategies to account for the larger pot sizes, making the game more intense and rewarding.
Important Things to Note About Bomb Pot
- Triggered on Every 5th Hand: The Bomb Pot feature activates automatically on every 5th hand, ensuring players are regularly engaged in high-stakes play.
- Two Boards, Double the Excitement: With two separate boards dealt on each Bomb Pot hand, players have the chance to win on one or both boards, adding strategic depth to each hand.
- No Pre-Flop Reads: The absence of a pre-op betting round means players don’t have the usual information to assess opponents’ hands before the community cards are dealt, making the game more unpredictable.
- Adapting Strategy: Given the larger pots and dual-board setup, players need to be more cautious and strategic when making post-op decisions. The potential for massive payouts is higher, but so is the risk.
- 3X the Action: PokerHigh’s Bomb Pot promises 3X the usual action in every Bomb Pot hand, meaning bigger pots, more strategic decisions, and a faster-paced game.
- Higher Action, Higher Reward: With increased action due to the inflated pots and the complexity of two boards, the rewards can be substantial for players who excel at post-op play and multi-board strategies.
