Scarney Teaser (1 Viewer)

[Jimulacrum]

Been hard at work on a new strat book for some time now. I'm (finally) expecting to finish in the next month or two.

Dropping this teaser here for your enjoyment. Scarney is the first "chapter" I've totally finished, and it's about 20 pages in all.

(Don't mind the incomplete Variants section from the prior game.)

Nope. No. No no no no no no no.

Man all these poker nerds love reading and studying. Please let me book just another year or two of winning Scarney sessions before publishing.

Is the whole book Scarney or is it a circus game book?

Looking forward to it! I enjoyed all your others and am still waiting for you to release Scrotum

And Scarney won't be the only game I ruin for you.

The day I see some jackwagon turn over quad aces with a 2 kicker to beat my 8 low will be followed simply by:

Also, strongly disagree that it's better as limit. Nothing like potting for stacks and watching someone's hand disappear!

I had to resist the urge to mention Scrotum in a later section, with regard to hands with different numbers of cards.

We play Scarney with a $5 ante. It speeds up the game and we did it because no one ever folded preflop.

I hope they don't buy this book.

I don’t need quads. Just give me AAA22 every hand. Thank you.

I’d argue that AAA22 is stronger than quads because you’re going to get it all the vast majority of the time and get at least one half even more frequently - it’s like discard insurance for the low.

You'd argue that repotting on the flop and then drawing 5 in Dramaha is a strong play.

It would be very difficult to put him on a hand.

Sometimes he straight-up doesn't have one. Just keeps betting and betting anyway. Only way left to win, I guess.

I always play for the low in Scarney.

 

[MrCatPants]

Ah, scarney. The game where I once flopped quads, turned better quads, and lost on the river to even better quads. Good times.

Yeah, sure, but it doesn’t mean I’m wrong.

How often will quad 9s win the low? I still think AAA22 is the second nut next to AAAA2, not quads.
