Learn About the Texas Holder Style of Crazy Pineapple Poker

Summary: Are you tired of playing Texas Hold'em every time you get together with friends for poker night? Then you should try Crazy Pineapple, a stud game with virtually the same set up and rules as Texas Hold'em, but with even more fun and excitement. Players start out with three cards, but discard a card before the fourth community card is dealt. The rest of the game proceeds just like Texas Hold'em, where players are dealt two cards each. The dealer begins to play a hand face-up on the table, and players go around betting, each trying to make the best hand with his or her two cards and any three cards from the table. This version of poker has become extremely popular with the birth of televised tournaments and celebrity playing.
