After talking to AMT this morning, I might actually be glad that I'm not in Vegas right now... although I'm sure I'll end up playing this game at some point in my life anyway.

What happens when two players with the same hand beat the puppet? Is it also game over?

what happens when the pot gets big enough to busto all the players if they lose? this WILL happen if you play this game enough times...

before ppl were stuck and one person insisted on playing it out, we built a $2400 pot. Since our bankrolls are in no shape for $2400 swings, I offered to chop the pot 3 ways (3-handed game) even though i had contributed almost nothing to the pot. Basically i let them buy out by giving me $800.

and what would you have done had they not accepted your offer? I feel like once you start playing there is the strong chance that a)someone goes busto b)someone steals the pot.

The truely sick game is Pimp Guts.

Standard Guts is three card stud, with the pay the pot, win the pot form of betting.

In Pimp Guts, each player must pick one card to flip over. Lowest card is automatically in. Game only ends when the lowest card player is the only one who stays in, and he beats the top three cards on the deck.

Sick part, in most pay the pot games, once it gets too big for you, you can just stop playing. In Pimp guts, if the pot is 5k and you roll a 2.... your in... you better hope your other two cards pair.
