I highly recommend you check it out.

I've been getting into mixed games a lot recently and even have revisited some wildcard games I used to play with my family when I was a kid. These days I'm personally not into wildcard games but to each his own! So, I took some of my family's games and tweaked them a little to resemble more professional mixed games.

Feel free to use this as a thread to add your favorite mixed/home/wildcard game!

Here is my first submission:
*Good Guy/Bad Guy*
(I renamed this game as "Horserace" in my home game because the constant back and forth nature of the hand reminds me of a horse race

1. Deal four cards per player
2. Deal two five-card boards on top of each other; top board is dead bottom board is live
3. Bet begins left of dealer or big blind, depending on the betting structure being used
4. Turn one card on each board, discarding dead cards from the live board
5. Player's do not discard but may no longer use dead cards to make a hand
6. Highest five card poker hand wins, highest four card hand wins if no five card hand, and so on
   1. Basic strategy is to ignore straights as the total loss of ranks makes straights difficult; Flushes aren't as difficult but still more difficult than normal

This game is similar to a popular circus game called Scarney, except in Scarney you DO lose cards from your hand (and may or may not lose top board cards) to the bottom board, and you're also shooting for low points in the mitt. Overall premise is similar, though. You could almost call this a Scarney variant. There are many, many variants and it would fit right in.

Thanks for the link! I didn't realize there was already a thread like that. Should I delete this then?

The players do discard in the typical home game version I played growing up BUT I removed that so players could bluff during the hand
