I prefer hold'em, although in hold'em the deck of cards has 52 cards. The criteria for me to choose a game is not the number of cards but the game itself. Your question is quite strange.

He means if you prefer 4, 5, or 6 Hole Cards in Omaha.

To answer the OP, I prefer NLH when it comes to earning money. If I'm playing just for fun, I like to mix it up with all kinds of poker variants.

I prefer PLO5 and PLO6, but it's hard to find safe games with this poker variant. Too many colluders.

I stick to NL mostly, it's what I know how to play. I do like to throw in a PLO freeroll now and then, it's good fun but I don't really know what I'm doing. 5-card I have never played and don't even know the rules.

Hold'em is more reliable, Omaha is faster and more diverse...)

I prefer Hold'em because it brings me the main income. Omaha is a good game, but it's not as popular as Hold'em, so I focused on what I think is a more promising direction, and in my opinion, it's NL Hold'em.

I prefer Texas Hold'em, but when I want something a little different, I also play Omaha.
I think, like everything in life, you can get bored to the game itself, but also to the type of game. So it's good that there are multiple game options to try out.

I like 4 card pot limit Omaha - larger variant of NLHE and fun, more hands generally get played and you dont get the all in maniac :)

I prefer to play holdem without a doubt because I don't play omaha very well.

I prefer to study and play NLH, however Omaha is a game that the population does not study, if you study you can do well on the field.
Remember the best prizes and tournaments are always at the NLH.
