It's an off-Vegas casino, fact is, it is half a dozen states away from there, and while it has its real name (which I'd rather not disclose), most people in that place call it "Navodila Za Poker", I tried asking 7 people why it was called such. I received seven different answers, I gave up.
Anyway, this Navodila Za Poker casino is unique in its own way, the management gives cash prize (around 2 grand) for the best invented poker variant for each month. While some of the variants I saw were completely incomprehnsible, this following is OK.
Every person is given 9 cards coming from a two-set deck, a betting round is done, every person then would show 1 card from button, it goes on. There may be 2 of each card in action, but every card would be shown just once, and only revealed cards get into action. He/she who has revealed everything would opt to be considered as all-in, and when this happens, the showdown is done.
At the Navodila Za Poker, this game could be done as high-low or lowball, whatever the participants wish. So there, if you want to visit the Navodila Za Poker casino, you'd have to do a lot of researching, goodluck. Archive for the ‘Tips & Bits’

Sometime last year, I attended a big-time poker party (home party), hosted by a businessman millionaire. In that event, they held a contest facilitated by a comedian who was not funny at all, well, the contest was interesting. It was entitled "Crazy Game of Poker Lyrics", and it was something like a spelling bee. Only, the participants would write (in the most accurate way) certain parts of poker parlance. I joined it, and without meaning to brag, I placed second (my prize was an expensive watch, not Rolex). The following words were those were I erred in, these were the reasons why I did not become the champion of the Crazy Game of Poker Lyrics. Here are the terms and the true definitions:
belly buster: it means inside straight draw.
big chick: starting set of A and Q (I answered pair of Qs).
boat: now incredibly, in that Crazy Game of Poker Lyrics, I was the only one who got this wrong. The answer: a full house- I don't know what happened to me then, probably my mentally-diseased MPD side spoke up.
Hooks: 2 jacks as starters.
Snowmen: (everybody got this wrong, haha)- an eight pair as the starting holding.
