SD means short deck... it's a holdem game with reduced cards so the hand rankings are:
- Royal flush. A royal flush is an ace high straight flush. ...
- Straight flush. A straight flush is a five-card straight, all in the same suit. ...
- Four of a kind. Four of a kind, or quads, are four cards of equal value. ...
- Flush. ...
- Full house. ...
- Straight. ...
- Three of a kind.
- ...
You're not the first one to fall into this trap.So in the short deck the Flush hand is above the Full house , Thats why i lost that hand thank you i didn't know that.
Exactly. This mistake pops up repeatedly and underlines the importance of noting, which game you sign up for. Most online games are NLH, but there are other formats. And if you dont even know the rules and much less the strategy of those games, then its a good idea to set filters, so that they dont show up in the lobbyYou're not the first one to fall into this trap. That's why it's very important to make sure to know the rules and rankings of the game variant you are currently playing! ☺️
There is a rule that try to confuse us, I do not know about this rule I can lose my stake if I play this tournament
If you play this variant, be aware that A6789 is also a straight.So in the short deck the Flush hand is above the Full house , Thats why i lost that hand thank you i didn't know that.

I'm pretty sure the reason for running another 'variant' isn't to confuse the players & instead it's to offer them another type of game for some variety that they can choose to play in... or not.Just another variance to confuse players. Personally, I try to avoid them. It's important to know the hand rankings of the game in which you are playing.
Ok but then I guess, people just need to pay attention when registering and/or learn how to play ShortDeck. Learning another format can be good fun, as long as you know, this is, what you are doingFilters are VERY limited on that site. And the lobby is very poor quality. It'd be extremely easy for someone to enter into a ShortDeck tournament there without knowing it til' the cards were in the air... or when your Fullhouse was losing to a flush. Also, SD MTT's seem to be more popular on that site.
No.Have you played there?
Is that what you think Short Deck is? I also like a good bankroll bonfire once in a while.good fun
