I've been watching the relaunch of the Poker at the Lodge stream and they've come up with something fun that I haven't seen discussed around here yet.
Those of you who watch those live streams like HCL regularly know the stand up game but for those who don't, let me explain the rules in short.
Every player stands up and has to remain standing until he wins a hand. Showdown or bluff, doesn't matter.
The last player standing has to pay each other player a bounty - usually something between 2 or 10 big blinds per player.
The side game usually creates some action and encourages bluffing when the opportunity arrives so that you don't have be the sucker who is standing last.
Doug Polk explained on the stream that the game is very popular with the players but it's tough to film it with everyone being on a different angle and moving around.
So they itroduced the "nit game". Everyone gets a nit button and gets to give the button back to the dealer when they win a hand. Last player with a button pays the bounty.
