Any 5-Card Draw players here?

5-Card Draw is my favorite game besides NLHE... I just don't enjoy LHE or PLO and am just starting up a conversation

OliverOliver · Mar 18, 2014

I wish. It would be neat to be able to play this live at a casino sometime. I personally enjoy playing a variety of games live, but mostly the only offering is hold em.

BlakeBrown · Mar 18, 2014

NLHE is really fun... 5-Card Draw is the truest poker game I do not understand why they don't have it but it is such a great game!

Online 5 Card Draw-Luck or Skill?

Is online 5 card draw a game of all luck or is there some skill involved? To me online it seems more like a game of luck than skill, I can see how there's some added skill playing live due to tells, but it just doesn't seem like its a skill game on the internet.

BlakeBrown · Mar 19, 2014

Just as much skill as live! That is just like saying NLHE online is not skill because you cant see tells, luck is short-term and skill is long-term

Yea but in NLHE there's community cards, that makes a world of difference.

BlakeBrown · Mar 20, 2014

NLHE is definitely more of skill game... Say that NLHE is 30% Luck and 70% skill online or live, 5-Card Draw might be 40% Luck and 60% skill whether it is online or live, if that makes sense

I prefer to play No-limit holdem but sometimes I play 5 card draw as well - mostly it's when the holdem starts to boring me. I have succeed few times - mainly getting tickets to other tournaments by managing top-72 in PokerStars 5-draw freerolls.

BlakeBrown · May 7, 2014

Haha Holdem never gets boring to me but it is just that I like to change it up once in a while... I wish more 5CD players were around, however

5-Card Draw is a cool game but can be realy tough. You dont have idea what your opponent have and the number cards he discards give you not enough information about his hand. Anyway it`s the true poker game.

Kibic1302 · May 8, 2014

in this variation I played as a kid with my family: D Now only holdem

hffjd2000 · May 8, 2014

I play variety.

You must have good luck to play those other games since mostly are drawing games.

guutox · May 19, 2014

I only play hold'em, tried play other types and can't I'm very very very bad, need focus in only one type and i choose Hold'em

5card is the 1st poker game that I ever played & learned.I like it but I am more hooked on NLH.

slash407 · Sep 13, 2014

i love 5 card draw. to bad there isnt as much tables for it. so i just end up playing hold em the most

bigjay2007 · Sep 13, 2014

I personally lovre 5 card draw, and agree theres more of a luck factor, but you still have to be able to play. One of the challenges is that I don't play enough and it seems that I get a little rusty with this game after a while. When I was a younger lad, Draw was where it was at!!!!

I think it fun to play sometimes and play some freerolls at PS, but thats it.

When I was a young boy, that was the one and only kind of poker that we kids played. Now is pretty much boring to me. In this days, I try some freerolls on PS for tickets. Lot of All In fake situations. I think the odds are from "Twilight Zone"

If someone get a straight, than there's allways someone who have better hand, flush or something. And again, if someone get a flush, there's someone who have full house.

I love 5 card draw, I also like a-5 triple draw ,2-5 triple draw still learning those two tho but I do play 5 card draw every so often I wanna be a well rounded poker player

counts24 · Sep 17, 2014

I agree

They don't play 5 card draw on any of the sites I play on or any of the clubs I play in. There is a reason, it is luck, there is no community cards and there is not a dealer I know that would want to deal it if they had a choice.. It's a home game for people that don't know how to play poker. No offense, just my opinion...

supermoto · Sep 17, 2014

the gameplay is good, but if you learn to master it can greatly benefit

pokernut92poker · Sep 17, 2014

Love me some 5 card draw ... get to play live once a week at my local casino , but not much online... good luck to you at the tables

Before black friday there were a few poker rooms in the US that had 5 card draw.Now im not sure of any. Does anyone here know of any US accepting sites that have 5 card draw ?

carloskmargo · Sep 17, 2014

I remember it was the first variant met while some seven card (stud) when I was 8 or 9 years old, was with friends and they taught me some secrets of 5 card draw, personally is a very fun game fine and good for a change variants that are played today.

Pokerstars has 5 Card draw tables. But there's no one on there at the moment. I read the Jon Fox book and got really interested but have rarely had chance to play it
