The game of poker has become quite popular recently, especially Texas Hold’em poker. This is due to the media attention all poker tournaments are receiving of late. Furthermore, many online sites host such games free, so it is only natural that many become aware of this kind of poker game. However, there are many other types of poker games in existence, aside from Texas Hold’em. One of these is Omaha poker, where the rules are very similar to Texas Hold’em but with a slight difference. In Omaha poker, the hand must contain 2 hole cards from the player that is dealt with four cards and exactly three cards from the board as opposed to Texas Hold’em that has any combination. Another kind of poker is Seven Card Stud, where players are dealt with 7 cards but only five cards are used to determine the winner.

The HORSE and 8-Game Mix are other poker games that are actually a combination of 7 kinds of poker, including those mentioned above. The 8-Game is pretty much the same as HORSE, with some added rounds of Pot Limit Ohama and No Limit Hold’em. Another kind of poker, and probably the most classic among the types of poker, is the Five Card Draw. In this poker game, a player is dealt 5 hole cards and is given a chance to discard some of the cards in hand. These discarded cards are then changed by the dealer and the one with the best set of card wins. These are just a few of the poker card games in existence today.
