Default Playing \"Other Games\" live

Hi all,

I'm working on the FAQ for Other Poker, and one big hole in my knowledge is where these games are available to play live. If anybody knows of regularly spread Draw High, Lowball Draw (A-5 or 2-7), Triple Draw, Badougi, Pineapple/Crazy Pineapple, Soko, Chinese Poker, Razz, or other uncommon casino poker games, or mixed games containing any of these, I'd appreciate if you would post them.

No one in Vegas spreads them regularly unless it's part of a mixed game high limit or enough people form an interest list at some of the other joints that will spread anything. IE: Aladdin, MGM, GVR and so on.

NO WAY... dedicated Chinese Poker tables? I [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] the Wynn! Klepton, lets Gamboool!

In all seriousness, there is a semi-regular Triple Draw 2-7 game where I live, standard limit tends to be 5/10 (which plays like a 10/20 game). That is all I am going to say publicly.

How big is a $10 a point chinese game? What could you go off for? I'm just curious, I'm a novice at the game.

Oh really? I thought it was much more - aren't there bonuses for sweeps and certain hands and some other stuff like that? If it's just 500, I'd probably play this just to try it when I'm down there.

I wouldn't sit in that game with less than 1K. The varience is huge.

At commerce they play for $5 a point, Klepton and I lost 1.5K combined in a matter of a few hours. Of course the variance is also dependent on the style they play, western without the bonuses has the smallest variance.
