A little over two weeks ago, I heard about/started playing “Royal” Holdem on UB. For those of you who don’t know the game, it is played six-handed with a 20-card deck, Aces thru Tens.
I’ve never had more fun playing poker in my life. Nothing like holding the stone cold nuts and having someone raise you and call your re-raise, yahoo.
Well, it looks like it is drying up, which was inevitable. Last night I noticed 3-4 $2/$4 Stud/8 games going on Party and thought, all right! Sat down and got my ass kicked, but left before the bruises appeared.
Tried again today and did OK but it was a strange game. My line on third was weird I guess and maybe the whole hand stunk, but here it is.
