Re: Padooki/Badugi forum - Can we set one up?

It will do fine as part of this forum.

Ah, but is it actually a poker game?
pro: Poker-like betting and drawing. Poker theory is extremely applicable.
con: Very different hand ranking system.
But I agree that badugi is on-topic here; I'd hate to send anybody off to the Other Gambling forum. *shiver*
Are there other 'poker' variants with nonstandard hand ranking systems? There's Big Two, I guess, although I'm not sure I believe that's poker because the mechanism is so different. One could make an argument that Chinese Poker isn't poker either despite faithfully following the hand ranks.
