I joined a new poker site this evening and joined a confusing game called 6+ holdem.

first thing odd was when I held QQ and was deemed the winner against 106 on board Q987 10!

If that was't evough I myself held AK but was beaten by 1010 on board J108 Q 7!

I was really puzzled with these hands but it turns out this game is designed differently

    Yeah, must be confusing at first. In the rankings 3ofakind and Straight are swapped, as are Flush and Full House. Flush is harder to make because cards are removed from the deck as they're not used in 6+ (all suits of 2,3,4, and 5 cards). All other hand strengths are as per normal holdem. They should just enable that one Friday night.. can you imagine the ranting that would go on from players who didn't realise...

    This new site  I was playing has gets worse everyday poker is clearly a lesser importance. It provides casino type bandits as a side game, it can be easy to get confused with holdem mistakingly thinking 6+ means 6 seat, hand history can be hard as you won't have sky filtures or the holdem manager filter and notes can't be filled in when multi tabling because the pad will vanish if you were to click on another table. shall get my required points for free holdem manager credit and close account down forever.
