What Are Your Top 3 Best Games Outside of Holdem?

obv Holdem will be at the top for most players.

i have won majority of my winnings playing nl holdem, but i also enjoy some of the not so popular games such as razz and 7stud which it turns out im pretty good at both. ive won atleast 1 mtt in almost every game
i would have to say my top 3 games outside of nl holdem are


Razz
7stud
Horse

Omaha
2-7 lowball
Chinese poker

Hearts
solitaire/Spider solitaire
Bridge

From windows games

Omaha
Stud
Horse

But, anyway, Holdem is much better than these games

2-7, Draw and Badugi.

lol i was once a top ranked spades player on yahoo

POot limit Omaha (PLO) is the only other poker game I know how to play. I dont play it that much either.

Razz, 2-7 & Horse

5 card draw, omaha, stud

Razz
2-7 single draw
Omaha

My best game is LHE. I actually think NLHE is outside my top 5. After LHE, my best games are probably:

Stud-8
Stud hi
LO8 (limit omaha-8)

Badugi waddaaaa?

as for me NL Draw,PLO and .... Limit Draw?

i enjoy playing draw... before in my country if someone says lets play poker.. that means 5 card draw...

Good question!

I have made a living at hold'em but it's not fun. I love PL Omaha H-L IN MTT play but only hi limit fixed in ring games because people are so out of countrol in PL ring games no matter what the ante..I have won a lot of money playing horse. Sraight stud and Razz are one in the same and they take very little skill so I never play either outside of HORSE. I also love cribbage, especially when I can get someone to play for high stakes..

Do you flip coins for money?

These 3 are all luck:shot: . Don't get me wrong because I have won and lost a lot of money flipping $100 bills.. I just want to know how much money you've lost playing those 3 games?

Pffft, maybe luck to some people who haven't got a clue about how to play them, there are a lot of skilled players here that play these games well and don't need luck to win them.

I in no way was trying to put you or anyone that enjoys these variations down because I have also spent hundreds of hours playing them over the last twenty years and I have made bets on some crazy things all of which had nothing but luck involved and I tried to convey this. Good luck in any game you chose, my experience is the more luck involved the more pain for the loser and the more enjoyment for the winner..

gin rummy, raub, lorum
for the last two games i dont know exact names in English

Omaha Hi-Lo
Omaha Hi

Third is more tricky... maybe Pineapple Chinese Poker.
