[Highli99]

All the same denomination is indicative of a limit game.

Yes, but then why does each player have an all in button?

Ready for a $1/$1 cash game tonight. Can’t wait for the first double board bomb pot to happen!!!

 

[ImCrossland]

Double board bomb pot is a MUST. New players will love it.

 

[Coyote]

I would ban explosives in my house, but these chips look really nice.

 

[toothpic]

Double board bomb pots are polarizing. Either they are super fun or they are super stupid depending on which side you end up on

 

[djfayze]

The people I host are typically the tightest players you can think of. Not because they’re patient but because they’re the most casual of players out there, playing only when I host. I implemented a bomb pot every 30 mins in our NLH games and like clockwork, they all become absolute animals during the hand.

A ton of laughs and all sorts of headaches with 4 & 5-way all-ins with uneven stacks. The best hand to watch but the worst to unpack after!

I have the opposite problem - all my guys are super loose players that were originally passive but have become more aggressive. Constantly betting and raising with crap. I hate constantly having 4-5 people involved in each hand haha. We’ve raised the stakes a couple of times but that still didn’t fix things haha.

Got a full house only to split the pot. Now on to No Limit Super Hold’em

Those categories are not mutually exclusive. A simple example to demonstrate: I'm currently listening to Motley Crue.

Better than me

 

[Coyote]

"Super Hold'em" can become a tad less volatile if you have to use at least two of your three hole cards.
So, no flushes with four of a suit on the board, and no full houses with two pairs on the board.

The name of the game here was "Fat Cuckoo" in contrast to the normal Cuckoo, referred to by Doyle Brunson as "Greek Hold'em" or "Tight Hold'em" (just two hole cards, BOTH of them obligatory to use).

 

[BonScot]

Oooooft

 

[Coyote]

Interestingly, that's the sound we produce here too, if touched on the scrotum

Finished up tripling up. Great wee night. Finally got the dodgy fleebay shuffle tech out for a test drive (it didn’t blow up). And got to use the mat I bought over a year ago.

4 color and 4 corner cards? Did you lose a bet? Or is there some sort of evil afoot?

 

[Coyote]

4 color, 4 corner, Jumbo, is the best combination.
Takes away unnecessary neuro-cerebral work. Reading two-corner, two-colour, minuscule indexes is NOT a poker skill.
Can make a difference after 6 hours, especially among middle-aged citizens, to whom I 'm shocked to admit I belong, now.
Multi-focus glasses against presbyopia, or even German Shepherds in extreme cases, can also be of some help.
