 Vegas HoldEm
Here's a little spin on the traditional hold'em games we know and love...created by a couple of my friends.
You play the game like normal, except when action in the hand gets down to just two people, if both players agree, each player picks one of the other player's hole cards for them to turn over.
You end up seeing one of your opponent's cards, but they're not picking the card, so they can't NOT expose the ace they might have, etc.
It's a lot of fun...can be a real action killer if the card exposed happens to be one that pairs the board, and beats your hand, or if can create a lot of action if the neither card exposed seems to fit in with the board at all.
We played this frequently the last time we were in Vegas - everyone loved it. Give it a try sometime!
