Default Re: Dumbest home game rule ever?

I like the rule at a home game I used to play at:

"1/2 100NL - before the flop the max raise is to $4 TOTAL, on the flop and beyond there's no limit"

so yeah 10 people see the flop for $4....flop K42 rainbow - someone's always got 2 pair already

I played in one with an ante instead of blinds, it was limit before the flop, pot limit after the flop. There was never anything you should fold pre-flop. I didn't like it much.

We played with 2 jokers in the deck. The jokers could be anything. also if there was a bad beat hand was declared dead - everything was set to initial position.

I played a Home Game with no side pots. If you were all-in for your last 100 when the blinds were 1,000-2,000 you could win the full pot of 3,100. You could also win any additional betting the other players made.

Needless to say I only played once.

I'll be honest, I don't know which rule is worse.

6 Hands Heads up.
Ability to win full pot if you have 1 small denom chip left.

That is...tough...
I feel like an idiot for griping about some of the home game rules I've ran into...

Aw, come on. Side pots are just too hard to figure out.
