So yesterday I got invited to a card game and I was told it was a Texas Hold Em Game. It was a bunch of older women (mainly) who were playing so I decided to give it a shot.
Well, when I get to the game, what they are playing is clearly not Hold Em. I’m going to try explaining this game to see if anyone has ever heard of this game before.
Everyone is dealt 3 cards to start the game. Then there is a round of betting. Next, 2 community cards are flipped followed by a round of betting. Then a 3rd community card is flipped followed by a round of betting. Lastly, a 4th card is dealt with no betting.
Here’s the kicker in the game. You can play any combination of 5 cards up to and including the 3 cards in your hand. I didn’t realize this until I watched the first hand. When there was 4 different cards on the table and one lady yelled full house, I almost collapsed. Like WTF is going on here

Also, one other rule that I’m not accustomed to (I’d usually call it weird but I’m trying to be a better man) is that if two players have 2 pair, the highest non paired card in your hand plays. It’s ummmmmmmm different.
Anyone familiar with this witchcraft?
