Default Re: Chicago NL Hold \'Em Variant?

It sounds kind of stupid to me but then so does nascar and people like it.

As for strategy, depending on high or low you obviously would never fold the A or 2 of spades since they guarantee you half the pot. So if you end up with As and anything, you raise knowing you're going to win half the blinds at least.

It should be impossible to push people off draws when they have the nut spade.

Limiting it to six people there's still 12 cards out which is basically a quarter of the deck so there's roughly a 1 in 4 that someone has the ace.

Christ, if I had the nut spade I'd just play fairly normally then push on the river. If they call I at least win half the blinds with a chance of winning it all and sometime's they'll fold.

Am I missing something?
