Bus Crash

An easy game (if you can play poker already) that lots of people hate!
This is a derivative of a game thought up on the spur-of-the-moment late one Thursday night (up West) by my God son. He just happens to drive a bus, hence my name for it.

MAIN RULES
Deal 3 cards to each player face down. 
Usual flop, turn, river (3,1,1)
However each player must use all 3 cards in their hand and ALL spades are wild.

This game can give some unusual results and can be good for bluffer's.

However it does seem to upset people, so be aware.

Matty and Matty Turbo plus not meeting Jodie Whittaker

T wo games in one! Or is that 4 games in 2 I have to confess I have no claim on this game, it pre-dates my Poker life. This is another simple game if you can already play Hold'em. Invented by Matty (that's not to say Matty is simple, far from it), hence the name. Basics For Matty (that's not to say Matty is Basic either) All players dealt 3 cards face down. Usual flop (3 cards), turn (1 card), River (1 card). Players MUST play 2 from their hand and 3 from the table. After playing this you can advance onto "Matty Turbo". Don't panic it doesn't require you to run around quickly or even play quicker. No "Turbo" in “West End Speak” means you can play 2 or 3 from your hand. i.e. Basics for Matty Turbo All players dealt 3 cards face down. Usual flop (3 cards), turn (1 card), River (1 card). Players MUST play 2 or 3 cards from their hand and 3 or 2 cards from the table to make the best 5 card hand. Now it's time for a glimpse in...

Are there poker thoroughbred games?

A ll modern Thoroughbreds race hoses trace back to three stallions imported into England from the Middle East in the late 17th and early 18th centuries: the Byerley Turk (1680s), the Darley Arabian (1704), and the Godolphin Arabian (1729).   As we have discussed, to make a good and playable new dealers choice game, it needs a known base game with probably just one change.   Now the majority of poker games are based on 3 styles of games:   Hold'em esq (community card games) . Dealt "hole" cards to players with community cards in the centre. Texas hold'em being the most obvious example. These games have proved very good raw material in which to take into the shed and modify.   Another "style" of poker is "Draw" poker . Which basically has NO community cards and each player makes the best hand from what is in front of them. Five card draw is one of the most common types of poker. Each player is dealt five cards, then a round of betting follows....

Blood River

A very simple addition / alteration to any game with community cards. To be fair this isn't a Shed or even West End invention. Basic rules are play (say Omaha) as usual. Standard flop (3 cards), standard turn (1 card), standard river with round of betting. BUT if the river card is red (heart ♥️or diamond♦️) there is another river card with a round of betting. IF this card is red, there is a 3rd river card and betting. This continues until a black (♠️♣️ ) card is dealt, at which point there is a last round of betting. Now as always men with sheds have developed this further. For example Utah and Dr Whooo can both easily have a blood river, as can Matty and Matty turbo. You get the gist I'm sure. I will leave it at that as it is Christmas and I don't want to overtax you with "bus crash", "LGBT", "menopause" etc.
