Crazy Pineapple Strategy
If you know how to play Texas Holdem, then it will be easy for you to learn Crazy Pineapple Poker. Crazy Pineapple is a variation of texas hold'em that is very similar to regular
Texas Holdem, except with 2 very interesting differences change the nature of the game quite significantly.
- YOU START WITH THREE HOLE CARDS - While in regular Texas Holdem you start with two hole cards, in Crazy Pineapple, you start with three.
- You throw a Hole Card Away! - AFTER the flop, you must discard one of your hole cards.
Pineapple is a fun game to play, because of the extra strong flops and extra key decision about what cards to keep after the flop.
Crazy Pineapple - Playing the Game
- Three Hole Cards are Dealt, followed by a round of betting,
- The flop - 3 cards are dealt face-up, followed by a round of betting,
- Players still in the game, discard one of their hole cards, folowed by a round of betting,
- A fourth card, the Turn, is added face up, followed by a round of betting
- A fifth card, the River, is added face up, followed by the last round of betting
- Whoever has the best hand wins.
You will want to play slightly fewer hands when playing Crazy Pineapple Poker than you would in a regular Texas Holdem game, simply because with more hole cards to choose from, the bar is raised, and you will be competing against slightly better hands.
