LOL, Badugi isnt that difficult to learn. Its a lowball, rainbow game.
The lowest, unpaired, unsuited cards count as your hand. Aces are low, and straights dont matter.
The best hand you can have is A234 all different suits.
Just remember, pairs dont count, suited cards dont count, so if you have AcAd3c5d, then your hand is Ad3c, and will get beat by JhQdKsKd.

i think badugi is an interesting game and i play it when i have some spare time ....the big picture is: u have 3 draws and u can draw 0 to 4 cards every draw; u need for your hand the lowest, unpaired, unsuited cards(A234 different suits is the best one)...hope u are gonna like it and u will play this variant of poker too

i love badugi and i think u can make a lot of money playing it
u are dealt 4 cards and there are 3 draws to make ur badugi
a badugi hand is an unpaired un suited i.e all different suit hand and the player with the lowest badugi hand wins for e.g A234 badugi will win they are the ultimate nuts !
after a badugi hand there is 3 card badugi and so on !!
its not that difficult and there is alot of action !
i loved it !!
