Re: Book cover protection

Re: Is it ever right to chase a backdoor low?
Without any real prospects for high (paired board, no diamonds for flush) a wheel won't win high with 6 callers seeing the flop. You are taking too great of a chance to get the runner-runner low...

Re: Home game favorites
One of my favorites is Anaconda.
Seven cards down to everyone, and a round of betting. Everyone passes three cards one position to the left, and a round of betting. Then, pass two cards two...
