I know everyone likes Texas Hold em, but does anyone else here play other games of poker? I enjoy playing some other uncommon games like Baseball and Black Chicago. What are your favorite games? Omaha, 5 card stud, 7 card stud, 5 card draw, razz, texas hold em...etc?

I lean towards Omaha. I even get teased by my boyfriend, who's the big one into poker, about my tendency towards Omaha, but I really don't mind. For some reason, it's the game I play best. I think because I have so much choice (four different cards to play with). *shrugs*

I like to play mostly Texas Hold'em but I also like to play 5 and 7 card stud. The site I play at regularly doesn't have any stud players. I've also become a huge fan of Omaha and Omaha hi/lo recently. I play poker whether it be tables, mini's, mtt's and freerolls nearly every day online. I'm from a small town where there isn't any places to really go play live.

Oh, I usually just play with my boyfriend and his friends. I'm still learning the game, so I don't think I'm god enough yet to join a website. I still make fairly simple mistakes (I'm way too loose at times, because I hate to fold so much). Hi-lo kills me every time, because I always get terrible middle-ground hands. -_-;

I think that OMAHA is more unpredictable and you have to think twice before making a move.
That's why I like omaha a bit more than Hold'em.
Anyway it's another thing to calculate odds on omaha as everyone has got four cards in their hands.
I really want to improve my omaha way of playing, and get more experience in it.

Yes, I like Hold em, but recently I have begun playing alot of Omaha Hi, and I really like it!
It is different, and sometimes hard to switch between the different styles, but it is fun to change the game up. :O)

I really enjoy playing poker three at the casino. A few weeks ago I won $4000. I kept getting straight flushes, the payout is 40-1. Not much thinking involved in poker three, but I found it easier to win money on. I also like Carribean poker, get big adrenalin rush hoping to get the Royal Flush and win the $150 000 jackpot. Texas hold em is ok, but don't like it how people can work out possible combinations that you could have. In carribean there is more mystery.
