Resource abby99's Mixed-Game Cards (2 Viewers) New Version 2020-12-04

[abby99]

I was looking up the differences between Drawmaha and Draw2maha as I recently played Dramaha(how their plaque read) at a casino. We also played a version similar to 2-7 Drawmaha. They played Drawmaha/Hi-dugi, playing to the best high badugi hand in your 5 hole cards. Very interesting, and a very fun session I had.

Which casino?

Sometimes I suspect that a few degen pros try every possible combination of games in order to create new ones. Some play well, others not so much. I probably won't be able to try out Drawmaha/Hi-dugi until the next meetup.

I was at Aria playing 4/8 mixed.

Lol probably. I now need to study all the badugi/badeucy/badacy variants. Any tips where you can even find that stuff?

They're known as circus games around here.

Try a few internet searches. I have a few sites bookmarked on my other computer, but in general, searches should hook you up with the most current info. There's no substitute for playing, although the tuition can sometimes be high. (No scholarships that I know of.)

There is a mixed game group in Las Vegas that refers to them as Carnival games.

Maybe I missed it, but is Drawmaha 49 in there?

 

[MrCatPants]

@CraigT78 Any chance of a group buy?

It will be in the forthcoming update, which is not quite ready.

Shout out to @abby99. I used your cards last night to introduce new games to my regs. They never want to play anything but pot-limit Hold’em .10/.20 blinds. I convinced them to try something new.

We played dealer’s choice— .10/.20 to $1 spread flop games and .10/.20/.40 stud games. We played:

Ludicrous Pineapple
5 Card single draw
Omaha8
Chicago
Baseball

Everyone enjoyed it. The cards were a big help. I think that I have opened their minds to trying new games because of them. Hoping for a repeat next month.

These are great but is there a version where I can go in and edit some of the info for games like low hole and other variants if I wanted to add them? I don't see an editable version just the pdfs

 

[abby99]

I'll put the underlying Word file in the next update.

Played like other Drawmaha variants except pot is split between Omaha hand and a draw hand that plays to a point value.

Point values work as such:
Face cards: 0
Aces: 1
All other cards: # value

So best draw hand is TTTT9 (49 points). This game emphasizes the middle cards.

Thank you! I've been working on an update but it's going slowly. I had more spare time before I retired!

Ha! Hopefully that's a good thing.

@inca911 won't play Stampler because (IIRC) he thinks the has too much power. A local has suggested playing the as low for non-qualifying low hands (thereby making the the high spade), to take some of the power away from the (it doesn't play for the low *and* qualify for the high spade when there is no low).

@moose and @SeekTheGrail suggested a variant they called 'Stumpler' where the suit of the high hole card for non-qualifying low hands is decided by the river card, thereby disguising the strength suit.

I think its an improvement.

Sorry -- It seems that the more free time I have, the less I get done.

Yeah, same situation here.
