dkelloway 0 Posted January 21, 2006 Share Posted January 21, 2006 Hey, recently I noticed that our home games are getting slow and boring. We usually play NL hold'em on fridays and saturdays and no one has the interest to play limit hold'em and everyone is too lazy to count the pot for pot limit hold'em. Anyways, is there any way we can make these games more exciting and faster paced? Link to post Share on other sites

stealfromblind 0 Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 ran into the same problem in one of the games i play about a year ago. we started to let the dealer select the game every full orbit between nl holdem, omaha, stud, follow the bitch, and baseball. also if you have a lot of new players who come by and play the game they will dump off tons of money in these games due to lack of experience. so the whole thing is +ev and much more fun.

Rude Dog 0 Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 I've seen pineapple, but never played it.How much does the third card improve hands, generally? Is it huge like Omaha, and take a top full house to feel good about your hand? Link to post Share on other sites
