Pass The Pineapple
Pass The Pineapple
Pass The Pineapple is a game that plays similar to Texas Hold’em. The object is to make the best possible five-card hand using a combination of hole cards and five community cards.
Players are dealt three hole cards. Players will each pass one of their cards. Like Texas Hold 'em must make a five-card hand using any combination of the cards from their hand and from the community cards.
Each player is dealt three cards face down, starting with the player to the left of the dealer.
There is a round of betting where each player can fold, call, or raise. Betting starts left of the dealer or left of the big blind.
Community cards are dealt as a three card street (flop), a one card street (turn) and a one card street (river) with betting rounds following each street. A "burn" card is dealt before each street.
After the flop is dealt, each player must pass (unseen) one of their cards to the player on their left. Players that have already folded are skipped during the card passing process.
Each of the players will end up with 3 cards.
The lowest card in their hand and all other cards of the same number are wild cards for that player. Aces are always considered high when determining the wild card.
Determining the Winner
Each makes their best five-card poker hand using any five cards from their hand and from the community cards.
Aces can play high or low for determination of the winning hand. Five of a kind beats a straight flush in determine hand strength.
The game can be played as a limit, pot limit or no limit game. If not stated otherwise, this is a No Limit game. The game can be played with blinds as a "round".
