In a sincere tone, (since people who say 'use the search function' are ususally being jerks), if you search, I'm pretty sure it was mentioned a while back ... 6 months - 1 year? I can't remember, but I thought I saw it a while ago.

I'd be interested to know if you find it.

You're right, I should have searched on this.

Well, I slogged through the archive server search and found nothing. I probably didn't have the search terms right. However, it only took a second with Google to find this from the Wizard of Odds.

The house edge is suprisingly small. I'm surprised it was even spread at a casino. I guess the power of the poker boom makes it worth it.

Edit: Ah, the house edge is in the side/sucker bets. Should have seen that coming.

It's MUCH harder for most people to play optimally. This game tends to be the highest hold game on the floor. It almost holds too high.
