Chips: 46 | | Crazy Crazy Pineapple Anyone ever played this?
Deal 4 cards. Bet.
See a flop. Bet & Burn 2 cards.
Turn, bet, river, bet.
We play Crazy Pineapple alot, usually hi-lo-8, but the action when you play Crazy-Crazy, is, well, crazy.

Chips: 5,790 | | | Re: Crazy Crazy Pineapple I've also heard of a variant called Thermonuclear Pineapple (not my choice), you get 5 cards and discard 1 preflop, another post flop and another on the turn.
I'm a big crazy pineapple fan but I don't care for pineapple as much. |

Chips: 516 | | | Re: Crazy Crazy Pineapple I've never played Crazy Crazy...but I've played Pineapple quite a bit... I smell a few rounds of Crazy Crazy coming this Friday...I'll call it Omahapple (O-Ma-Happle) since the quality of hands should almost be like Omaha.

Chips: 2,860 | | | Re: Crazy Crazy Pineapple I've never actually played Pineapple or Crazy Pineapple, but as I understand it, both those games start with 3 hole cards. So, shouldn't this "crazy crazy" actually be called "Crazy Omaha"? It's basically Omaha with a discard... (Omahapple is catchy and pretty original, too). |

Chips: 5,024 | | | Re: Crazy Crazy Pineapple After playing Crazy Pineapple, my husband decided he wanted to play "Crazy Mango" (he made it up, but apparently it's not that original) - 4 cards, discard one on flop, one on turn. I'm not a huge fan, but it was popular at the last home game.

This makes usual Omaha trash hands like 2225 a premium.

We only really play that to kill time if we are waiting for people to show up or at the end of the night, but it's pretty addicting.
