PINEAPPLE (Regular & Crazy versions)

Pineapple is a variation of Hold’em with two major differences. One is that instead of two hole cards, each player gets dealt three and all of them face down. Then the flop is dealt- three community cards that every player at the table can use in combination with their hole cards to make the best hand. The second difference is that one of these three cards must be thrown away before the flop in a regular Pineapple game. In a Crazy Pineapple game, one of the three hole cards is discarded after the flop. Then the turn and river community cards are dealt just like in Hold’em.


The Crazy Pineapple can also be a high-low variation, in this case all rules for the high- low game are used and both high and low hand rankings apply.
