I have been following the Pokers Stars Caribbean Tournament in the Bahamas this week on the PokerNews blog

I kept seeing references to the $2000 buy-in Chinese Open Face Poker. I had heard about Chinese Open Face Poker before but for some reason, I always thought it was inside joke.

Its real and for those that don’t know [here is a link](http://www.pokerplayer.co.uk/poker-strategy/other-poker-games/9889/chinese_poker_strategy.html) to the play.

I am interested in learning more about the game and have dealt some hands manually. Cumbersome and time consuming and I really can’t tell if I am any good at setting the hands.

Are there any internet programs to play against?
