My friends like Texas<br>Hold Em though. The only poker they knew of was Texas Hold Em. It's <br>not a bad game, but I think introducing more variants could be fun --<br>we currently go for "dealer's choice" in our games. <br><br>If you have any variant ideas... would love to hear them... trying a<br>few hands of the original 4 player, 20 card poker could be fun too, <br>maybe I'm being unrealistic. <br><br>We usually start with 40-50 "points" per player. This can last quite a<br>while. Betting rules are pretty minimal -- you can't raise in a round<br>if you previously checked or called, and you can't re-raise if you<br>raised and no one else raises. We don't have any betting minimums or<br>maximums in play but pot-limit may be a good approach if anyone, err,<br>plays against the vibe. We tend to double the blinds every 15 minutes or<br>so to help speed things along. <br><br>It would be great to play poker with other gikos sometime, whether for<br>money (gikocoins?) or prestige.
