    Default Anyone 8-game mix?

    I think I might be about to win a seat into the UBOC19 50k guaranteed 8-game mix. Does anyone know how to play this?

    Yes, no problem with the games:

    1. limit triple draw 2-7 low ball. you need to have the lowest hand where A is a high card. no straight and flushes. best hand is 2-3-4-5-7 (off suit). you have 3 options to switch cards.
    2. limit holdem - you know the rules.
    3. limit omaha hi/low - get 4 hole cards, 5 community like holdem. your hand MUST be compound from 2 of your hole cards and 3 from the community cards. no other option. both high ranked hand and low hand get paid (half). BUT to qualify for a low hand you muat have 5 cards 8 or lower. flushes and straights are OK. pair are not. low hand are consider according to the higher card you hold. 3-4-5-6-7 is a better low than A-2-3-4-8. best opening hand is A-A-2-3 double suited.
    4. limit Razz - like stud (see number 5) but you must have the lowest hand you can. best hand - A-2-3-4-5.
    5. limit stud - get 2 cards face down. one card face up. than you get additional 4 cards (one at a time). at show down you have 2 cards face down, 4 cards face up, seventh card face down (i.e. 4 of your seven cards are open). you should make best hand (5 out of your seven cards).
    6. limit stud hi/low - structure like stud but both high and low hands win (like omaha hi/low - see section 3).
    7. Pot limit omaha - same structure as omaha hi/low but without the low stuff. only high hand wins. remeber - 2 of your hole cards and 3 of the community cards.
    8. NL holdem - as you probably knows the rules.

    I am not sure regarding 7th and 8th games - who come first, but this is in nutshells the rules of all games. If you want to learn more, I am writing a blog regarding the rules and statistics of all poker games. good luck there. poker for the mass

    Sadly, I didn't cash. I would have gladly worked something out with you. I did last about 2 hours though. Funny because my game is hold em, and hold em happens to be the game I went out on. I was doing well until I got coolered.

    My highlight of the tourney was during stud. I had 3's rolled up, then 4th street was a 3 aswell. Took a "UB pro" down to nothing with that hand.
