Everyone else at the table was shocked, wondering "How you can go all-in preflop with this trash?" hahaha 4. On the river, I showed 35s for made flush and he showed 84s for a higher flush. This super game can be a reason for many funny situations at the tables. This can be also played on pot limit or no limit. You can even add more different types of poker to this format, for example, you can start discarding cards before the flop or play with 4, 6, or even 7 cards. As it is with NLHE, players may use both, 1, or none of their hole cards to make their hand. Then, everyone has to discard one card after the flop, another after the turn, and one more after the river. This Texas Hold’em variation has simple rules: 5 cards are dealt to each player. Countdown Hold’emĪfter years of playing exclusively NLHE and PLO, this amazing format became a superstar in my local poker club. Just a pro tip for this format: the probability of completing a spade or club flush draw is quite high, making entering the pot with “black” suited hands a lot more profitable! 3. This variant brings suck-outs that you could never think of in other forms of poker! Cool, huh? Imagine that four rivers were dealt (small probability but not microscopic), and your crappy hand catches a really strong hand. If that card is also red – another card is dealt, until finally, a black one appears. This type of poker is played exactly as Texas Hold’em or Omaha with one exception: if the river card is a red card, an additional river card will be dealt. Everyone else was thinking exactly the same! Four players went all-in preflop with totally trashy hands! It turned out that in fact, I had the best hand – 85o! I hit a straight on the river and I won a massive pot! 2. I thought that it is very likely that I was holding the best hand. Some time ago, I was playing this type of poker with friends and I noticed that everyone was holding really crappy hands – I don’t remember the exact cards but something like 72o, 34o, and 62o. To exemplify this, let me give you an example: This variant is one of the craziest styles of poker! Everyone holds their cards on the forehead! Every player knows all of the cards except his own ones! Imagine how much fun it can be.
