Ladies and Gents and the rest of you,

There is now fixed limit Hold'em at from .02/.04 all the way up to .5/1. Its not really my cup of tea, but I am loving seeing new variants on the site

The rake is the same as it is at the NL tables, although the play is much much faster. Bet buttons seem to work correctly, although I didn't have a chance to push it to the cap, I did see others do it, and no one went past. With that said I am not a fixed limit expert by any means, so it is possible something is not correct about it and I just missed it.

I'd imagine that this would take significantly more work, seeing as they would need to adjust either the interface of how cards are dealt for that particular game, as well as the algorithm for who wins the pot (both hi and lo).

I would imagine that limit holdem would be a lot easier to make, as the only think that needs to be adjusted is the betting option.

But good on Global for continuing to widen the games they offer.

You're right. Cubeia's website doesn't list hi/lo games as an option, but....wishful thinking. They do offer 5 and 7 card stud along with Pineapple.

I love me some Pineapple, especially the open face type.

I played a variant on a different website where you started with two cards. Then on the flop for 1BB you could get a 3rd card, or stand pat. It wasn't open faced, but I enjoyed that one as well. People would often get that extra card, its only 1 more BB right?

I play that as well with my kids. Not for money obviously

But I enjoy the puzzle solving aspect of it for them. Plus they are like "Its poker like dad plays"

You need to put your kids to work and then win all of their money from them when they get home, so you can retire.

Teach them a lesson early, that's the only way they take it with them throughout the rest of their life
