I ordered a couple from the group buy going on just now. No idea when I’d use them but the looked cool and that was enough reason for me

You should've held out for the best. If you have a pizza box and a Sharpie, @mike32 can create one on the spot.

Pizza box? My last one was made from a box that held a fifth of scotch!

It’s a joke Abby, but I do routinely make them from cardboard during our poker games. They are mostly for myself because I can get a little forgetful!

Post #214 gave it away. I have a hand-crafted one as well, sans pizza sauce. I worked very hard making it.

Maybe there is a market for recycling dice chips?

Just so I’m absolutely clear... I use the Hi side up for Omaha High and the Lo side for Hi / Lo?

If that’s right then I think I prefer @abby99 s design.

You should go on Dragon’s Den with that idea (think it’s called Shark Tank over there)

Correct, although it can be used for any game that can be played either way.

Cool thanks for clarifying. We only play hold ‘em so looking forward to trying Omaha.

For holdem, after showdown you flip the button like a coin to see if the best or worst hand wins.

(Enough drinking and I might actually try this!!)

I think you’ve just invented a new game!!

 

[Mr Winberg]

For all-ins you flip it on the turn to make the river more exciting.

You need to find a way to incorporate a dice roll into this!!

When winning the pot you roll a dice, showing how many shots of tequila you need to take!

Someone had a die made that had six different games on it... Roll the die (pre-deal) and find out what game you are playing.

Better to find out pre-deal than on the river.

Sorry.

Sorry.

This seems like I'm picking on @mike32 (okay, I am, but I love the guy), but he's won a few pots by finding out post-river bet what game we are actually playing. I believe he's developing it into a chapter in his upcoming book.

I'm waiting for the game where the middle hand wins.

At showdown, if there are 2 or more active players, eliminate the lowest hand. If there are still 2 or more, eliminate the highest hand. Repeat process until one player scoops.

@mike32 has played 'second best' wins. It sounds awful.

Ladies and gentlemen we have a winner... now I’m off to quickly copywrite this

It’s called Omaha Mediocre. I’ve already ordered two buttons from the group buy

I refer to this as "bluffing myself" sort of like when Todd Brunson only looks at one of his hole cards. I was recently scooping a pot in 2-7 draw after I tabled my hand where I was playing my ace as a low card and @Marc Hedrick commented on my nice river bluff that was actually a value bet in my mind, hence the "self bluff". My homemade Hi-Lo card could not even help me at that point!

Glasgow Hold'em, patent pending. Better change from tequila to scotch!
