It's Friday, which means our normal NL hold'em lunch poker game turns into dealer's choice. Normally we limit it to Omaha (O8 and high only) or slight hold'em variants like pineapple or crazy pineapple, but every so often we'll come up with something new and see how it plays.
Today, it was Pineapple Upside Down Cake. The brainchild of one of our designers, it's crazy pineapple with one exposed card.
The exposed card makes for some interesting metagame play. You get questions like "why's the guy with the deuce reraising?" or "I see he's got an ace, but is kicker really any good?" It was a lot of fun, we'll probably devote a Tuesday to it one of these weeks.
But next Tuesday, it's Badugi! BADUGI!!!

Despite the fact that you won half of the ginormous pot last night, I can't help but think that drunken poker matches like the one last night might actually be harming your game a little bit. Moral of the story: next time your opponent doesn't realize that her boat beats your set, don't tell her and you'll get all the money. This is how we get better at poker: cheating. And by "we" I mean "me". Hehahah.
