Pineapple
Poker with Community Cards
Best 5 card poker hand
Number of Players: 2-10
Wild Cards: No
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, and 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.
Each player must discard one of their 3 cards. The game continues as Texas Hold 'em.
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.
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.
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".
