Learn What Makes a Good Hand in Crazy Pineapple

Let's talk now about what makes a good starting hand for crazy pineapple. In fact good, so let's try to drive that home. Let's look over here. This is a hand with potential because it has a pair of aces which is great. We love a pair of aces in any kind of holdem' game and it has the potential to get the nut flush, it even has the potential to catch a nut straight. So you have a number of things working, a pair of aces, ace three of clubs and this is good because on the flop you are going to have to figure out which card to discard. Here is another premium hand for crazy pineapple we have a pair of kings, king queen twice and you have king queen suited. Again, you can rather easily catch the nut flush. When you have king queen suited you might even catch a royal flush. So let's just deal a flop, a random flop and talk about it. We'll talk about which hands are doing better. Well, look at that this flop didn't hit this hand so good so what we're going to do here is we're going to discard our queen but we have a dilemma here. We keep the pair of aces or do we throw the ace and draw towards the flush, the nut flush. That is a dilemma we'll talk a little later about how to play that but I'll just go ahead and tell you since we are heads up we only have one opponent to beat, we are going to throw away our three of clubs and play our aces.
