BADUGI RULES AND ORIGIN

Image
  A four-card hand of four different suits and no paired cards is known as a “Badugi”. Pairs, as well as two cards of the same suit, are bad in Badugi, and any hand containing these cannot qualify as a four-card Badugi. At the end of each hand, the lowest four-card “Badugi” wins the pot. If there are no four-card Badugis, the best three-card hand wins the pot, and so on. Badugi is played using forced bets known as blinds, with the player sitting to the left of the dealer button posting a small blind, and the player to their left posting the big blind. The small blind is usually half the size of the big blind. Each player is dealt four cards face down. The first round of betting then takes place, where you can call, raise or fold. Players still left in the hand after this first betting round now have the option to draw. The idea of the draw is that you can choose to discard any cards that you don’t want, and have them replaced with new ones that you hope will improve your hand. Click th

BADUGI STRATEGY GUIDE FOR ADVANCE PLAYERS

  Badugi is still a relatively new poker game which was developed in South Korea and did not make its way to the west until recently. As a new game, Badugi strategy is still being developed, and not many articles exist on the topic. The strategy I’ll share here is one I’ve used successfully at PokerStars.com $3/$6 and $5/$10 Badugi games. I can’t speak about how well this Badugi strategy guide will work at the lower stakes, or the higher stakes, though I assume it will work similarly but will require some small adjustments. Winning Badugi strategy involves an aggressive, high risk approach to the game. You’ll often see Badugi strategy bloggers post about how the South Koreans play this game more aggressively than anyone else and how they’ll snow more often than other players. What most fail to mention is that South Koreans invented this game, have been playing it for years, and often give even good poker players a struggle. Everyone looks like a maniac when they’re caught snowing a few

  The game of Go originated in Asia and is a variant of draw poker. It shares many similarities with Lowball as it is the lowest hand to win. However, it differs significantly from the most popular poker variants as it has a different hand ranking system. The strongest hand is a card with no pairs and 4 low cards. This is known as Go. The origin of the card game Badugi is somewhat undetermined although many people have noted the similarity to the South Korean word "baduk," which means "black and white pattern" - similar to what you might find in the game Go.  How to play Badugi In North America it was reportedly played as "Offsuit Lowball" in the 1980s in Winnipeg and a comparable high-low game was played in Toronto. In Vegas some say it originated with poker pro Paul "Eskimo" Clark, who reportedly brought the game back with him from his military service in Vietnam. These reports are unconfirmed, though. The best way to get a proper handle on how

HE ORDER OH THE GAME OF GO

Baduki has a very different hand sequence from poker. A maid (which seems to be derived from English made) is that all four cards have different patterns and numbers. Therefore, a hand with cards of the same suit or number among the four cards is not made. The probability of becoming a maid as soon as you receive four cards is about 7%. A hand that is not a maid is called a no-maid, and a maid always pushes the no-maid. A no-maid hand that becomes a maid by subtracting one card hits a hand that becomes a maid by subtracting two or more cards, and a hand that becomes a maid by subtracting two cards hits a hand that becomes a maid by subtracting three cards. The maids compare the number of the cards with the highest number of the four cards to determine the superiority and inferiority (the ace is treated as 1). Like a low ball, the lower number wins, and if the highest card has the same number, the second highest card is compared, and if all four cards are the same, a draw is drawn. The
