Search for the Higgs Boson is one of the prime goals of the LHC. Higgs bosons lighter than 130 GeV decay mainly to a b-quark pair. While the detection of a directly produced Higgs boson in the bb channel is impossible because of the huge QCD background, the channel ttH -> lnqqbbbb is very promising in the Standard Model and the MSSM. We discuss an event reconstruction and selection method based on likelihood functions. The CMS detector response is performed with parametrisations obtained from detailed simulations. Various physics and detector performance scenarios are investigated and the results are presented. It turns out that excellent b-tagging performance and good mass resolution are essential for this channel.
