Crazy Pineapple Poker- Fun Party Poker Game

December 30, 2009

I have just recently come across one of the most entertaining poker games of all time. Crazy Pineapple Poker is another variant of regular texas hold’em poker with a fruity twist. The game starts out very differently and ends up being the same as hold’em towards the end.

  • Like Texas  Hold’em, the 2 players to the left post blinds before the deal.
  • Then the changes begin for a brief while. Instead of being dealt 2 hole cards as in Texas Hold’em, each player gets 3 hole cards to begin. After the 3 hole cards are dealt, there’s a round of betting.
  • After the betting is complete, the flop is dealt, and another round of betting begins.
  • From this point onwards is where the “Crazy” begins- after the second round of betting is done, all players remaining in the hand choose 1 card from their 3 hole cards to discard. So everyone now only has the regular 2 hole cards just like in Texas Hold’em again.
  • From this point onwards the game is identical to Texas Hold’em. The turn is dealt, a round of betting happens, the river is dealt, another betting round, and then there’s the showdown. Players can use any combination of the 2 hole cards in their hands and the 5 board or community cards on the table to make the best hand, and the best hand wins the pot.

This game is very exciting and extremely fun to play with a group of poker players looking to have a refreshing take on poker. Let me know if any of you have tried it.

Got something to say?





Murphy's law is an adage or epigram that is typically stated as: "Anything that can go wrong will go wrong."It is used as either a purely sarcastic musing that things always go wrong, or, less frequently, a reflection of the mathematical idea that, given a sufficiently long time, an event which is possible (non-zero probability) will almost surely take place. Although, in this case, emphasis is put on the possible bad occurrences. Poker and Murphy's Law are good old friends. Have you ever noticed how Murphy's Law comes into play at the most critical times in any poker players carreer. Have you ever noticed: How well you play when you don't have the time to play How badly you play when you have the time to play How you always get beaten with shocking hands when deciding to move all-in with premium hands How you seem to win small pots when you need to win big pots for survival How quickly you can loose your big stack
