Dramaha by Jim Donahue - Page 2 - Books and Publications

The only way to draw in new players would be to water down the mix to something like TOE.

That’s cool and all but I enjoy many more games and so do others.

I just don't get it I guess. I don't enjoy any of the split pot draw games either. I figured they were all brought in just to confuse the bad players and get their money more quickly. If you enjoy them then maybe not though.

New games arrive for a variety of reasons. Mostly they start out as something that may be fun to play. But better players are able to adept more quickly and forces weaker ones to fight on multiple fronts

In the set of hands with 5cJcTcJh4h, there is another boxed hand with a pair of jacks that's slightly higher-ranked and almost identical in form to 5cJcTcJh4h, so only that one is boxed for follow-up.

Also, what do you mean about more information on how strong your Draw hand is relative to your position? Like a starting-hand chart?

Loving the discussion, guys. ScotchOnDaRocks, I hope you get to play some Dramaha soon.

Draw strength is so important, so say you are dealt QQ or KK UTG? Playable? What is probability that your draw hand is best with so many players left to act? That type of thing

do u ever get to reno? they include it in the 23 other games all $1-2 Pot limit, $50 minimum table stack biggest maximum, every monday afternoon here in reno. i kind of guessed drawing hands would be good in the dramaha since i flopped the nut boat and saw no matter what id only get half the pot at best with my ****ty draw hand. if so bring an extra copy of the book. bring an old dogeared used copy so i can buy it for less.
