Triple Draw, Five Card Draw Come to PokerStars
17th Nov 2006, 07:30 GMT
Filed under: Online Games PokerStars has added some new draw poker games, including 2-7 triple draw, and 5-card draw. The games are offered in limit, pot-limit, and no-limit versions, at a variety of limits (you'll find me at the .50/1 limit tables, thankyouverymuch.) According to everyone I know in the WPBT, the 2-7 TD games are the softest on the Internets at this moment. I took a shot, and discovered that, yes, the average player really doesn't know what he's doing (including me), and 2-7 TD can be as maddening as Razz from a junk-kicking perspective, but it was still a lot of fun. There's a very useful primer on triple draw at Poker News (which includes a great picture of The Hammer) so go give it a look and then head over to PokerStars. Just try not to throw a Q9 and redraw a Q9, or throw and redraw all four sixes in the deck to keep making a pair like I did -- it's very hard to win that way.
