I started playing it 2 days ago and it is extremely entertaining, try to play with a holden table in simultaneous and it costs me too much to get into the holdem, demands a lot of attention.

I've never had contact with this game.
I do not know if I would like him, because just by reading and trying to understand it I was entédiado. I think it seems a bit confusing, at least to me. it seems to me a practice of fortuneteller "to visualize the future in the letters". at the moment I had no interest, who knows in the future.

I've sat in for a game before, felt like my head was spinning trying to follow along with no prior knowledge! It was a friendly game, so no gambling... wouldn't be something I'd want to gamble with personally. Could be fun though if more sites added this as an occasional option!

To be honest, I did not heard about this game until today. Reading the article, I saw that it is even more hard than I thought.
It is like a puzzle or something. It seems to be great and very funny to play. But it seems to bem a lot of a lucky game. I would not spend money on it.

First time I hear or read about any chinnese poker Did not understand almost anything by reading hehe... I did not find it very interesting maybe that's why just believe is too complicated... just dealing the cards is a challenge I think I will stay with my texas Holdem maybe in a far far away future will play this game

For the first time I see that this kind of game exists, I still do not understand how it is played, but I will try to learn.

I find this mode fascinating, I know only the basics, but I feel excited when playing.
I love to see the CC addressing these issues. Many forums focus only on Hold'em or Omaha, but this makes CC the best in the industry =)

It looks interesting for me to go deeply into this type of poker. I heard about Chinese poker before and thought this is a game for high profile players. As I see everyone can study and play this game easy. I like such card game where is your way of thinking is required. I pretty sure open face Chinese is a good enough for brainwork.
Thanks Cardchat for such article.

It is better to try once than to read a hundred times about it. But the article is really cool.

I love this game!
I play OFC in 2 rooms - freerolls most of all/
Very interesting and addictive strong! There is an incentive to learn to play better, which is important. A rise in this game is where - is unique!

greetings to all first and foremost I have never played this type of poker, but it is interesting to know this modality because if we are poker players we must know all the modalities, here reading the article I find something disturbing that, you are dealt your initial five cards as normal, but then to make the rest of your 13 card hands you are dealt three cards at a time. Each round you keep two and discard the third face down. Discarded cards are not shuffled back in the deck, so take this opportunity to discard cards you know the other players need for their hands. I should definitely read many times how to play because I do not understand anything about the 5 cards

I’ve never played it but I did have an App that had a game similar to OFC. It seems like a fun game to play during home games with friends and a few beers.

Never heard about this game before, it seems interesting.
I think it's a game in which the ability of a good preflop strategy is the basis to win.

It seems a bit complicated and I think I will not learn to play it at this time, maybe later, when the game is enabled to play in a virtual room.

I did not know this game; but I already have the idea. Starting with the initial 5 cards and their subsequent selection to organize the front hand, middle hand and back hand:

FH 3 cards
MH 5 cards
BH 5 cards

I still did not know this format. The game seems to be a mix of Texas hold'em, Seven-card stud and with variance of games like Blackjack. Curious the part of the points and the game to be played with the face of the cards face down.


You are pure wrong.

The simpleest from of this game is that -
1) First you get 13 cards. such as AAAA, KKKK, QQQQ, and a J.

2) Then you use the 13 cards to make 3 hands of poker, 5 cards, 5 cards, and 3 cards,
such as, AAAAJ, KKKKQ, and QQQ

Here is a reference.

The simplest introduction is here.

The Asian version is very simple.

The European version is diffcult.

I see that Chinese poker is gaining popularity in recent times, the number of games of this kind in poker rooms is increasing. But I do not play because I have no idea about playing the game, somehow I will sit down and read rules them .. maybe I will like it.
