My favorite various when drunk is a game a friend of mine came up with called Balls.

Everybody is dealt 2 cards face down, then they all hold the cards just above the table and on the count of three either drop the cards if they feel it's not a winning hand, or hold the cards if they feel is is the best dealt hand (best obv. being AA).

If everybody drops, everybody antes again and repeats the cycle. If two or more people stay, all the losers have to match the pot. Game ends when only one person keeps their cards.

We usually played a small, .05/.10 game and the pots in Balls will easily get into the 20's and 30's. I've even seen one pot that got up to 120 bucks. Fun times, but can get dangerous very quickly.
