I've asked this question a couple different places, but nobody seems to know. I was just wondering if anyone has seen a site that offers soko? I know 24h poker does but that's the only one i can find.

I did a search for you BabyRN, and it looks like 24hrPoker is the only site that currently has Soko. If I see another, I'll be sure to let you know

Soko is played exactly like 5 card stud, except a 4 flush and a 4 straight counts as a hand. In other words, a hand such as 4567Q is not queen high, but is a 4 straight. A 4 straight and a 4 flush beat a pair, but lose to a two pair or better (4 flushes beat 4 straights).

(mynameisbill)Once you play afew more games youll see that they all take alot of skill.I found that out by playing the freerolls alot no matter what type of game.Try omaha or omaha hilo sometime for fun.

Thanks for checking it out for me! I really like that game just cause it's a little different, but I'm not crazy about 24hr's software, or the times of their tourneys!

Soko sounds pretty fun. I'm gonna have to check out the site that offers it. I always enjoy playing these strange offsprings of the regular poker games. They are very interesting and quite fun. One of my favorite non-major poker games (aka holdem, omaha, and stud) is razz. Its really fun. I know the professionals say they hate it but I love it. Anyone know any sites that offer it?
