Actually, Aces, I thought it was VERY clear:

"except you have the option of paying a big blind to receive an extra card that you must discard preflop or pay two big blinds and discard the extra card after the flop"

In defense of Zetack, if you read this literally, the original poster is saying that the "extra" card you receive is the one you must discard.

You are correct- my apologies to both of you. I read that as Pineapple.

OP, if you'd have to discard the 3rd card automatically, this game is dumb and only stupid fishies or degenerate gamblers buy the card.

I'm assuming you have 3 cards to chose from, when folding a card.

Clearly what the OP wrote is not what he meant. I was just ragging on the guy for a game that would be really dumb if played as literally written.

Hey, I amuse myself with these observations, although clearly not anybody else...
