Popular Versions of Texas Holdem:

Progressive Holdem

Progressive Holdem is played according to Texas Holdem rules, but with two exceptions: There are no blind bets, like in Home Holdem, and the betting structure is more similar to Let It Ride poker. The players do not do normal betting decisions like call, bet, raise or fold, but instead prepare four stacks of chips with each one of them larger than the previous one. For example, these stacks can be 50 cents, 1 dollar, 1.50 dollar and 2 dollars. In the first betting round after the initial deal each player is given a choice to either fold or to place his smallest stack into the pot. In the second betting round after the flop, players either fold or bet their second stack. After the turn players fold or use their third stack, and finally, after the river players can place their largest, fourth stack or fold.

Irish Holdem

Irish Holdem is played like Omaha Holdem with one exception that after the flop, every player discards two of his four hole cards. The rest of the game is played like Texas Holdem, with two hole cards and five community cards.

Super Eight

Super Eight game is completely equal to Texas Holdem, but three instead of two hole cards are dealt in the beginning.

PineApple

Crazy PineApple

Crazy PineApple is PineApple game where one of the hole cards is discarded after the flop and not before it.

Tahoe

Tahoe is not any different from Super Eight, but players can use only two of three hole cards to form the final five card hand.
