Short Deck Hold'em

Hold'em on a stripped 36-card deck — flushes beat full houses.

Forced Money

Button and blinds.

Deal Structure

Two hole cards, then a flop, turn, and river, all from a deck with 2s through 5s removed.

Betting Rounds

Small bet preflop and on the flop, big bet on the turn and river.

Showdown

Best five-card hand, with one twist: a flush outranks a full house, and straights run from 9-8-7-6-A up to A-K-Q-J-T.
