Different types of poker

One version of poker comes in the shape of mixed poker. This requires the player to play one half hour of one game and then another half hour of a different game; for example a player may begin with a half hour of Seven-card stud, prior to moving on to another half hour of Texas hold 'em.

The most popular version of mixed poker comes in the shape of H.O.R.S.E. H.O.R.S.E poker is a mixture of a variety of poker variants. These include Texas hold 'em poker, Omaha high-low, Razz, Seven Card Stud Eight-or-better and Seven-card stud poker. The game of H.O.R.S.E poker will usually be played by the punters for a fixed number of hands or alternatively for a fixed time. After this players will then move onto the next game.

As well as the above game of mixed poker, there are also a variety of other versions. These include the likes of H.O.S.E, which is almost identical to H.O.R.S.E; the only different being that it doesn't involve Razz.
