A friend of mine is putting on a HORSE poker tournament. I have never heard of this but figured it out to be (ain't I smrt?)...

Holdem
Omaha
Razz
Stud
E?

What is the E for, or is it a HORS tournament?

CONTEST PART... If anyone can tell me, pertaining to the spelling of the word smart above, what TV show and character it is in reference to. The first person to guess correctly I will send them a sample set, 6 chips, of my custom chipcos when they arrive. These are the Tarheel Poker Club chips which can be found here, This only applies if you are not a Duke Fan!

Homer goes to college? (The simpsons, not nick & jessica)

And the E is stud hi/lo (aka Eight or better)

[BigKyle]

I think E stands for 7stud Eights or better. Go Heels.

[SpaceMonkey]

"E" stands for Eight. As in Stud 8. Or seven card stud hi/low 8 or better.

[_GUN_]

they're right...

from the pages of The Official Dictionary of Poker:

H.O.R.S.E

(n) A game or tournament format in which five forms of poker are played in rotation, usually either half an hour of each or one round of each. The games are limit hold 'em, Omaha/8, razz, seven-card stud (high), and seven-card stud high-low (the e standing for 8-or-better).

Not sure on the episode but you got it... (best Homer singing voice here) "I am so smart, S M R T!"

JM is the winner, once my customs arrive I will send out a sample set to you... I will PM you for details.
