Re: Ultimate spreading Royal Holdem, but only limit
Instead of "what hands beat me", it's "what hands can I beat"

Re: Ultimate spreading Royal Holdem, but only limit
[ QUOTE ]
If one could quickly throw together the math for ap erfect EV strategy on this one could go clean up Looks like people are playing it $1/$2 (only 6 max). 20 card deck, A-T of each card. Every hand I've seen a winner is a full house, yet people still cap with 1 card straights, kinda sad. [/ QUOTE ] Hmmm... how about something like this... play all pocket pairs and nothing else, play aggressively if you flop a set or better, fold if you don't. Are ANY no pair hands worth playing? It would be nice if some math-savvy person could calculate how often the board will pair given that you have two cards of different rank in your hand. I'm guessing AKs will be still worth playing, but given how often the board pairs and someone will hold a boat/quads it might be marginal. Which hands should be raised preflop? (A guess: AA and KK, plus occasionally lower pairs just to mix up your play.)

KQs should be okay to, due to its straight flush and nut flush potential, no? How about QJs, AJs and ATs? Are you suggesting playing AKo and AQo in any position? How should you play JJ and TT? Only in LP in unraised pots? How about QQ? (Sorry if it's too many questions.. I got pretty into this game... never heard of it before.)

Umm.. I can't find these games at UB? [/ QUOTE ] They're listed under holdem, with Type Royal. It's weird, but if you go to holdem and click on the type column they should pop to the top. As for strategy: Thread from the Other Poker archives.

Re: Ultimate spreading Royal Holdem, but only limit
Just giving this game a try..got quite an interesting situation i thought i would share:
If you have AA and flop top set, then you can only be beaten by quads or a str8 flush. E.g. You: AA Opponent: KQ Flop: A T J Even though your opponent has you beaten, you can still only lose to quads or a str8 flush. This is because (barring quads or str8-flushs) one of 2 things will happen: 1, The board will pair, and you now have a full house beating villian's straight. 2, The board will make the nut str8 and you will split the pot. This just shows how strong AA is in this game.. Conversely, i think hands like TT and JJ are poor as you are pretty much always going to be drawing to 2 outs.
