slapdash Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 Re: Boss Media goes kinky What is Soko Slap? Haven't got the foggiest! Does it matter? :lol [OK, done the research. It seems to be 5-card stud where 4-card flushes and 4-card straights count between a pair and two pair.] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaF Posted November 1, 2008 Author Share Posted November 1, 2008 Re: Boss Media goes kinky I gave a "Five Card Draw 7-A" STT a go - went out in 5th (of 5) :sad Basically the cards 2-6 are removed from the deck (unless there's 5 players in which case 2-5 are removed from the deck). With the remaining deck, each player is dealt 5 cards face down, and has one round to draw. Only other anomoly I came across - the Ace can be used at the low end of the straight - so you can have straights that are A789T (with less than 5 players) or A6789 (with 5 players) :loon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dodger Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Re: Boss Media goes kinky Been playing a few Omaha MTTs this week and the standard is pretty much dire. One that I noted down: 50 player Omaha MTT...12 minute blinds. 23 minutes into the game...25 players left. 44 minutes...final table. 1st break...only 6 players left in. Would usually expect half the players to have gone by the break...it really is crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
