New Poker Game |
|
My friend and I play poker together a lot, most often for fun (because we have a hard time getting people together for a game), and we'll play dealer's choice often, switching between Chicago, Baseball, Vegas Touch-em, etc.
Well tonight we made our own game, and it seems to be pretty balanced and new, so I thought I'd post it here, see what you guys think. And yes, it does have wild cards, but I think it's all pretty interesting.
[u]Rules for playing Stonehenge[/u]
Procedure:
All players are dealt four cards, face down.
There is a round of betting.
One community card is flipped face up.
Another round of betting.
Best hand wins.
Community Card and Wilds:
The suit of the community card is wild. However, the community card itself is [b]not[/b] wild. Also, if any player has three or more cards of the wild suit in his/her hand, none of those player's cards are wild.
Hand Rankings:
Since flushes must come naturally in five cards, the hand rankings have been changed to this:
Royal Flush
Straight Flush
Flush
Five of a Kind
Four of a Kind
Full House
Straight
Three of a Kind
Two Pair
Pair
High Card
So, what do you guys think? Any good? We just came up with this tonight, and it can be tooled around with.

That game sounds pretty decent, but could you elaborate on what Vegas Touch-em is?

Vegas Touch 'em is where everyone gets four (could be five as well) cards, and you have to use any two cards from your hand, and any three that are touching from the board, which is set up like this, where Xs are cards:
X X X X
_X X X
X X X X
There's a round of betting when you get your cards, then the four corner cards are flipped, bets, top two and bottom two flipped, bets, then middle three are flipped.
