I have been a member of Full Tilt now for about a year and love it, its a great site, always a game going on for any stakes, a few donkeys (ok, a LOT of donkeys) but a good site.
I recently defected to Stars for a while, just for a bit of a change, just to see what the differences were and WOW! How many games??? I've never even heard of Badugi (that spelled right?) and still have no clue how to play it. What was a great surprise though, was being able to play 5 card draw again. I played that on Ladbrokes when my computer actually streamed the site! Just a nice change.
I know that the game of choice is still Hold-em, and if people ARE changing to other variants, they tend to be the HORSE games, but i'd love to see a nice change from the norm from time to time.
Anyone agree, or is the reason that sites dont offer these games because there isn't enough interest?

I'd love to see FT add some new games. I think the only advantage stars has over tilt is game variety. If tilt had 2-7, badugi & 5 card draw I'd never play on stars again.

The first time i played badugi was on a freeroll on pokerstars.
I learned the game while playing in the tourney and reading on a site how to play it...lol
And i did pretty good since i made it to last 50 and got a ticket to the weekly round 2...:D
So yeah fulltilt definetly needs more games!

I would assume as with any business... supply meets demand.

Questionable whether it's smart or not, but I think even sites like FT let the giant create the demand, then they want to step in later and ride the waves of success.

PS is willing to apply the age old saying ... nothing ventured, nothing gained.

I agree

I think the possibilities of playing a mix of pokers with limits is usually a bit shorter at full tilt. Not only at rind games, at tournaments too. But the room design and length of full tilt are best.

Wild Cards games!

Stud games are great for this. Some of my fave home games are 'card after the last face-up 10 is wild', so the wild card can change. 'Black Mariah' - queen of spades kills the hand, pot remains and grows. Low spade in the hole splits the hand, just thrown in any stud game.

On topic, FT can use a few more games. Who ever thought Badugi would ever take off, much less 2-7 lowball triple draw? Both great games. Even poker stars doesn't offer the microstakes for these like they do Omaha and such, but it would still have an appeal at the many high rollers at FT.

Wow, glad this got a reaction.
I was aiming for some some support on 5 card draw, 5 card stud and even 7 card draw.
I really dont enjoy Stud or Badugi, struggle with the 2-7 lowball too, is that like razz?? lol. I'd love to see a turbo 8 game introduced too maybe.

FT just recently introduced some new lower limit ring games, and the matrix games not all that long ago. I feel like they continually keep updating things as time goes on, which is definitely a good thing.

If you don't enjoy them, then don't play them. There are HUGE quantities of nl games for the fanatics.

Oh yeah, yet another Donkville Express on steroids ... :(
