Introduction
On any given day, at about any time, you can turn on the television and you will find a Texas Hold Em tournament being played on one of the channels. The televising of these games has brought forth a renewed interest in the game of chance. The market is glutted with items for holding Texas Hold Em tournaments at home. Cards, chips, marked table cloths, books on strategy, rules etc. etc.
Don’t get me wrong, I am not putting down the game of Texas Hold Em. It’s a fine game but I find it gets pretty boring playing the same game over and over. There are many more card games that can create excitement and genuine fun for those of us who cannot afford a $10,000 entry fee to one of these tournaments.
This book contains 41 games and variations of card games that have been played and enjoyed for generations. Long before television was even invented, folks would gather at different houses for Friday
or Saturday
night poker parties. Dealer’s Choice was the rule. Many games were invented at these night outs
and their popularity spread across the nation with different names and variations being added as they were played in other areas by different folks.
The games in this book are games that my friends and my family have played and enjoyed for over a half a century. These games are guaranteed to provide hours and hours of fun and excitement for you and your friends. C. Stephen Badgley
Setting up a Poker Party
The most important thing in organizing a poker party is to make a list of your friends and family that you want to attend. Set a time and date and notify everybody. Let them know what will be required of them to play. See Basic Rules
and House Rules
for suggestions on limits etc. You should plan for snacks and drinks. It is proper etiquette to ask your guests to bring something to add to the menu. Provide paper plates, napkins and plastic tableware. I suggest you keep it simple so you won’t have a big mess to clean up after the party.
The ideal maximum number of people to have playing at one table is seven. If you have more than seven you won’t be able to play some of the 7 card games. If you are going to have more than seven
