Premise: There are 3 very different games that call themselves poker:
- On-line - with all the advantages of the web (like playing someone around the world)
and all the disadvantages like password thieves, donks, collusion...
- Tournament - face to face across a table - which many of us aspire to
- Recreational - buddies in the garage over beer for quarters or dollars
Question 1: Anyone else prefer their style of play and enjoyment of recreational - or are we all adrenalin prize junkies?
Question 2: NL Hold'em has taken over dealers choice in the garage.
We each buy our chips, and then 1st, 2nd, 3rd share the money at the end. Any other ways to play for money? I don't miss hi-lo Chicago with 8 wild cards - but people hate to sit if they're out early.
