Just in case any of you haven't noticed yet... PS has added 5 card draw and 2-7 Lowball Triple Draw. Both are being spread in fixed limit, pot limit, and no limit. Damn this is going to be fun.

Leaders, let's get a private 2-7 Lowball set up for the THF... I know I'd be in... anyone else wanna try this?

If i can get anywhere near a computer i will play a 2-7 game.

I wonder if there would be any intrest in a series of saturday "other" games like 2-7, HORSE, HOSE, and 5 card draw $5 buy in games. I have next to no experince with 5 card draw, but I would still give it a shot.

im loving 2-7 triple draw. Most people are playing it having never played before, and the first time i played i bought in with $20 and made it to $78 before i stopped, starting up again hoping to do the same thing.

I've only a tiny amount of experience at both games but the 5-card-draw games at i4poker were just great. 2-7 triple draw or 5-draw, if it's at all possible I'd be happy to play.

i love these games but.... the lowest they spread is .25-.50 which is hard to play on a micro budget...and they have no tourney for the draw games yet....it would be nice to have a $5 game on starts though

i believe supersystem 2 has a section on 2-7 triple draw, maybe supersystem1, but one of them i think did, because i remember reading about it somewhere, and using that when i played today i ended up with 6x what i started with $20 into $123 today. I suggest anyone who can read that and then go take money from donkeys who are playing it right now because its the new thing to do

Blue, yeah the 2-7 Lowball is in SS1. Right now the tables are pretty ripe... did have my first bad one yesterday though. Drawing to the nuts, I came out with the smoothest 8 possible... vs a rough 7. I knew I needed to lay it down, but it was a 3 way pot and I was getting 6 to 1 on my money by that point. Gambled up and lost.

The only games I know how to play are holdem, 7 card stud/draw, same with 5 card. I like omaha, but do not really understand the hi/lo part of it. Does anyone have any pointers on these games?
