Played this last night with vhawk, kipin and my friend pierce.
10cent ante.
I think I won the biggest pot, like 150 bucks calling the puppet with J9cc since I knew the other pussies were folding.
To reduce variance, we capped the pot to be matched at 50$ and the pussy rule penalty was set at max 5$. We are total girls imo and I'm ashamed of myself.
The puppet is so freaking good at poker. The best bit was three of us calling in like a 30$ pot, me with AQ, hitting top two pair, but when the turn three flushed I start yelling NO SPADE NO SPADE even tho neither other human had a fd.
River spade.
We peel the puppets hand:

Grade: D- never will play again very bad game FU OP
Pot burn games are sick.
In high school on golf trips we played either 44, or 5 card draw corn pot burn. 44- four cards, fours are wild, declare in or out in rotation from the left of dealer, one draw, single stayer has to beat a pat dummy hand.
5 card draw corn- 2s,3s, one eyed jacks wild, same concept. Combined limit poker pot building with sick pot limit burns. From dime or quarter antes you could count on regular pots over $50.
Puppet is far sicker.
I will instead head to my golf league and regular Tuesday night $5 ante, $20 burn game, which I've played in some form for ten years now.
Pots only reach a couple hundred at times and it's hard to get stuck too much in a night. couple hundo maybe if you don't draw well all night and mandatory aces come up more than they should.
we play a similar game called bitch, 3 card draw poker, usually 2's and OEJ are wild, and you'd be suprised how many times the "I'm just gonna play aces" turns up 3 kings pre draw and you still get cracked. We're poor middle class working folk, so even a $5 match with 7 people playing can effect your rent payment
holy [censored] this game rules. Sadly I think i'd go busto for sure if I play it. I cant win at high card, what makes me think I could beat a random hand?
at first I thought this game sounded awesome, but as I read the thread I started feeling really nitty, because this seems like the sickest variance game possible
