They really should spread it at the Commerce. /images/graemlins/frown.gif

How would that do you any good?

I put Crazy Fox on the menu of my randomly-occuring home games after a description of it was first posted. It's always been very popular amongst the players.

I meant in honor of Andy, since it's his game.

Games of such purity as Crazy Fox will not be tainted by Couger fans.

[Michael Davis]

Crazy Fox is a terrible game.

Each player is dealt about 13 cards and a community board is used like in Hold'em, and you progressively throw away some of your cards after the flop, turn, and river are dealt until you have none left. The dealer is usually declared the winner by default. You then drink another beer and deal again. A very egalitarian game because profits are spread about in a liberal and approximately equal manner. I may have missed a few of the finer points and obtuse details but I think I captured the essence of the game.

As always, Comrade Zeno is correct. For the story of the genesis of this game, and for a few more irrelevant, but possibly clarifying, details, click here:

Crazy Fox, aka 4-card pineapple. (http://archiveserver.twoplustwo.com/showthreaded.php?Cat=&Board=&Number=552453&page=&v iew=&sb=5&o=&fpart=)

Yeah, any game where a man discards two cards and ends up with 5-2o is indeed terrible.

This time we played the game as you describe, except you could optionally buy a card on the end. If you didn't buy a card, then you had to buy a beer instead. I usually went for the beer.
