Chips: 111 | | | Best game to choose in Dealer's Choice Some of the answers in my other post just begs for this question. In a dealer choice game where it is only for one game and not a orbit what is the best game to take advantage of your position when you are dealer? Some choices would be holdem, omaha hi, o8, 5 card draw. Maybe others that I don't remember but in all those the dealer always act last. Which one would be the best choice? |

If your main goal is to make money, choose the game that gives you the best advantage to do so. If you are playing for fun, maybe choose a game simply to add variety or to change things up a bit. |

Which, if any of those games which give you constant last action have the best advantage. |

EDIT: I reread the OP. I thought the question was best game to get the best advantage in general. |

Is there any which is scientically better, assuming everything else is equal?
We are not consider player's skill or luck, etc. Just which game, if any, is the best for last action advantage. |

What you want to know is, of the games that have inherent positional advantage which specific one give the dealer the most advantage. Interesting question. I don't know the answer. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
