I'm asking you because i always change game and my friends tell me to spceialize in one but if i do i get bored and play badly.... i switch from NL 5 cards draw to NL 2-7 triple draw lowball to limit omaha hl to fix 2-7 single draw .... what about you ?

I found out too that it is for the best to change the game often. It is preventing me to become robo type player and adds little more excitement into the day. I like Omaha Hi, both PL and FL, and 2-7 triple draw, although haven`t mastered completely 2-7, betting and stuff. I play Omaha rarely because it is hard to find normal game of Omaha at low limits and bankroll must be significantly higher then holdem guidelines. 5 card stud is interesting game but haven`t been able to find low limits anywhere, occasionally higher limits are played. We`ll see what will Pokerstars bring. 7 card stud games are not something I would play for relaxation because they require much more attention to play. Sometimes, usually if it is HORSE tournament or in rare moments when I really want to play Stud. I will try those new games at Pokerstars.

I like double up sit n go's. 10 people payout top5, you got them on 888 network, cryptologic, ladbrokes and PKR. Its different kind of poker then top3 payout. I like them very much, many same players, you know how they play ect.

Yea those double up are awesome they should add them to full tilt to i like it that more people get paid than only the 2-3 best But you get less money but you get more change to win and i like that more than gettin a change to win more
Of course NL Hold'em multi-table tourneys but also Omaha HI multi-tables tourneys. I agree that the double up are nice, also aviabile at iPoker network i think. I've played them on CD Poker so i tink they are aviabile also on other iPoker network rooms...

What is your very favorite? Mine is NL Holdem. I use the SSS.
The very favourite is NL Hold'em, i play that the most of time. The multi-tables tourneys for at least 1000 people are perfect for me. I'm always in the paid places. Well, ok, not always but almost, it's better than cash tables. One badbeat on a cash table can ruin your bankroll...

NL Hold'em and 7 card stud. Even razz is a good game, if played sparingly. Just go away with omahahaha. This game is really a joke. The more exotic pokergames i do not know well enough to judge them.

Ya, just tried those out and they're awesome! Totally killing them at the $5 level. $10 level is a little harder. And the ones I was playing are turbos too so they don't tkae very long.
