Let's play some TEXAS FOLD EM! -- Beta Test

@Juggler

Wow, I won! Here is my whine from the first pm I sent to Meeko

“Wow, three tens in different hands, no pocket pair, no suited, only one card over ten.”

But it worked out alright, easy decisions all the way. Thanks for doing this Meeko.

I think it would be more fun to have two threads the next time, one off limits for players. If mafia can do it so can we, right?

This is where I discussed the idea of a Forbidden thread for Fold em.

I think, and rightfully so, the aspect of having 38 or so odd cards that works on the honor system is too much for some players.

Psst…you can’t make a straight without a 5 or a 10. But alas, you didn’t even use your 10 to make a staight.

Congrats.

@Cyberhwk

No, I meant that given a straight was possible, what were the odds someone flopped the nut straight given this many hands in play?

I’ll head up the next game if nobody else wants to.

I’m In

Ok. At work right now but I’ll set things up when I get home. Same thread or different?

Let’s have you go on your own.

I think the beta test ended successfully, wouldn’t you say?

Were there any takers for the spreadsheet from my game, that had all the cards, who folded what, when, etc?
