Title: If you were asked to show someone how to play poker Post by: johnbhoy76 on September 18, 2007, 05:55:34 PM What version of poker would you start off with and why?
Personally I think 5 card draw. As you get all 5 cards at once so it is easier to pick up the hand rankings that way. Would make it 'limit' also so that we could just concentrate on rasie, call or fold without going into how much to bet etc...

Then it'll get easier for them from there! Title: Re: If you were asked to show someone how to play poker Post by: bhoywonder on September 18, 2007, 07:29:39 PM badugi or 2-7 triple draw

Then it'll get easier for them from there! That's like teaching someone to swim by locking them in a chest, putting the chest in a sack, then throwing it in a river.
