A new poker game: Obamaha.  It's like Omaha, but when you pick your two cards to make your hand, your other two cards are added to the community cards for other players to use.

Other possible rules:

* players with stacks shorter than the mean get an extra river card
* graduated antes, based on stack size (the smallest chip in play for most players; nothing if your stack is in the bottom 10% of players; 10 of the smallest chip if you're in the top 20%; and half your stack if you're in the top 1%)
* flushes are the lowest-ranked hand, due to lack of diversity
* the dealer always knows everyone else's hand
* if you get three-of-a-kind Kings your stack is distributed to the other players and you are kicked out of the game, unless you're really sorry and the dealer likes you G+
