Does anyone think they will ever bring it back?

Any other games that players would like to see brought in? Id like to see more P/L mixed games.


Reason i asked was the cardroom manager of my local casino won the bracelet for chinese in 1996.

How many cardrooms can claim a bracelet winner as the manager.

Only played it a few times, but I think this game is great!  So many different hands to choose from and ways to win at each stage...

Chinese poker is tops!!!!

4 players, 13 cards each 3 hands to make, 2 x 5 card, 1 x 3card.  (all players do the same).  hands must rank from higher for the last 5 card hand to the worst hand in the 3 card hand.  points available each round 3, 1, -1 -3 Hands get turned over one by one and sorted out from first to last.

Not sure if this is right, but this is what we played over in APAT in ireland.
