- See Poker probability (Omaha)#Making a low hand based on low hand shape for the probabilities derived from these equations.
The probability derivations for starting hands making a qualifying low hand in Omaha hold 'em Hi-Lo are separate for each of the starting hand low shapes. The derivations require identifying the individual cases that complete a low hand; make a low hand possible on the board, but don't make a low hand; and that create a board with fewer than three low ranks, making no low hand possible.
The ranks on the board are indicated using lower case letters for matches with the starting hand and upper case letters to indicate qualifying low ranks that don't match the starting hand. So the low hand shape xxyz is any hand with a low pair of x with two additional low ranks y and z and the board xyA represents a flop that contains one x, one of the non-paired ranks y and one other low rank A. Note that since y and z have an identical relationship to the starting hand—each represents an unpaired rank—xyA and xzA represent the same set of boards and are interchangeable, so derivations for this hand choose one of the two choices represented by y. In addition to the upper and lower case letters, * is used to represent any rank higher than the qualifying low. So for the low hand shape xxy*, the board xx* represents a flop that contains two xs and a high rank (either the same high rank as xxy* or a different high rank).
One common calculation regardless of the hand is that no low is possible when there are two or fewer low cards on the board. If is the number of high cards in the hand ( = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4) and is the low qualifier ( = 8, 9), then is the number of low cards remaining in the deck and is the number of high cards remaining in the deck. Using ? to represent any low card, the number of boards with 0, 1 or 2 low cards on the flop, turn and river are calculated as follows:

Each table in the following subsections shows all of the boards that can make each hand and the derivation for the combinations for that board. Probabilities are determined by dividing the number of combinations for each hand by the boards on the flop, boards on the turn, and boards at the river. The probabilities for the boards in each table total 1.0.
Derivations for making low hands with four high cards
[edit]Starting hands with four high cards (****) cannot make a low hand, so the only possibilities are having a low hand possible on the board or not. With four high cards in the hand, there are high cards and low cards left in the deck. The following tables show the derivations when holding four high cards.

Derivations for making low hands with a low three of a kind and a low card
[edit]Starting hands with a low three of a kind and a low card (xxxy) can make a low hand when at least three other low ranks beside x and y appear on the board. With no high cards in the hand, there are high cards and low cards left in the deck. The following tables show the derivations when holding a low three of a kind and a low card.

Derivations for making low hands with three low ranks and a high card
[edit]Starting hands with three low ranks and a high card (xyz*) can make a low hand when either at least three other low ranks beside x, y and z appear on the board; or when two other low ranks beside x, y and z and at least one of the low ranks x, y or z appears. With one high card in the hand, there are high cards and low cards left in the deck. The following tables show the derivations when holding three low ranks and a high card.

Derivations for making low hands with a low pair and two low ranks
[edit]Starting hands with a low pair and two low ranks (xxyz) can make a low hand when either at least three other low ranks beside x, y and z appear on the board; or when two other low ranks beside x, y and z and at least one of the low ranks x, y or z appears. With no high cards in the hand, there are high cards and low cards left in the deck. The following tables show the derivations when holding a low pair and two low ranks.

Derivations for making low hands with four low ranks
[edit]Starting hands with four low ranks (xyzr) can make a low hand when at least three low ranks appear on the board with at least one low rank beside x, y, z or r. With no high cards in the hand, there are high cards and low cards left in the deck. The following tables show the derivations when holding four low ranks.
