7-A Five Card Draw

[mpanzer]

As I mentioned sometime ago this is the way we are used to play here in Brazil, with 5 or less people. If there are six people the dealer doesn't play the hand. If there are more people we split tables.

Flushes are higher than than full-houses but - even though they are slightly less frequent - are lower than quads. Actually, by the time I started playing online, I lost a lot of play money with my flushes...

We play with a different betting structure also - something like the the dealer is SB, next is BB, but the next can make it 2xBB before looking at his cards, and so on. The "Blind's owner" is always last to act - and nobody can raise pre-draw, just call or fold. And usually no one can draw more than 3 cards. But these are home games with different rules, anyway.
