show me the money :flamethrower:
not very nice as welcome :confused: :frown:
with regards to HORSE, I think that it is especially so that the professionals of the poker can meet between them without the "fish" lucky internauts !!
If you play HORSE, you must be surely a good player!
It's also not very nice to wade through loads of garbage posts by newcomers trying to get into our freerolls. Why don't you wait till you have something valuable to contribute instead of wasting our time with your meaningless drivel.:flamethrower:
:thumb: nice to meet you!!! thanks for your welcome!
who pollutes this topic now???? it is about "HORSE", doesn't it?
Yet another garbage post, how about it moderators, time for a ban?
this the pm i received from atzo,
now i have been told to be nice to new members,,,now if you look at post 2 you will see i wasnt being nasty or unwelcome to him,but does he really think that by posting 1 line posts makes a quality posting? i don`t...
your thoughts people please :thumb:

terrific agreeable!!!!
I am moderator on another forum and I think that to make some freerolls is also a means to make the advertisement for the forum and so to welcome new members, no?
are you always as welcoming with news members?
say me if you don't want me on your forum.
thank you
have a good day
show me the money :flamethrower:

Yesterday, when I suscribed here, I just wanted participate at this forum, just that, sorry!
about horse how does the tornaments work
do you play each game for a set amount of time or until a certain amount of players have been knocked out
Good players have their place in the game of poker and hopefully it will be at a table where I'm not playing
HORSE is actually an acronym describing a combination of poker games:
The background of HORSE
- Hold'em
- Omaha high-low
- Razz (Seven card stud low)
- Stud (Seven card stud high)
- Eight-or-better (Seven card stud high-low)
In large cash games in brick-and-mortar casinos, the players often agree to play a mix of poker games rather than a single game. This reduces the edge that a single-game specialist has, and emphasizes a player's breadth across multiple versions of poker. Many people feel that HORSE and other mixed games are the best judge of a player's true poker ability. HORSE has also gotten a lot of publicity because it was added to the 2006 World Series as a $50,000 buy-in event - the largest buy-in event at the *WSOP. And it is now part of WCOOP, the World Championship Of Online Poker, held annually on PokerStars.
HORSE is one of many popular mixed game variants. PokerStars offers both HORSE and "HOSE", which is just HORSE without the Razz (seven card stud low) round.
Playing HORSE
HORSE is played as one "round" of each of its component games. It begins with limit hold'em, then limit Omaha high-low, razz (seven card stud low), seven card stud, and finally seven card stud high-low. When the seven-card stud high-low round is complete, the game goes back to limit hold'em, and so on. You can tell which game is being dealt by looking at the top border of the table window.
When switching from Omaha high-low to Razz, the button is frozen. That way, when the game switches back to hold'em (after seven card stud high-low), nobody skips blinds or pays extra blinds.
All the component games in HORSE areplayed fixed limit - there are no pot-limit or no-limit games. The limits (such as $5-10) are kept throughout the game rotation, and you play $5-10 fixed limit hold'em, $5-10 fixed limit Omaha high-low, etc.
Summary
HORSE and HOSE are great ways to develop expertise in multiple games, and break up the monotony of playing a single game throughout a session. We encourage you to get comfortable with each of the component games first so you'll know what's going on, and then jump right in
