    I have noticed and played (for play money) a new online Poker game. The rules are identical to conventional NL Texas Hold'em.

    Here are some aspects of the game.

    1. The only flush is a Royal Flush.

    2. You have 7 cards with which to make a 5 card poker hand and there are only 5 ranks. Lowest possible hand is two pair. A Full House seems to be the most common winning hand.

    3. A Royal is sufficiently rare such that suited and unsuited hands seem nearly identical in game play.

    4. If the board comes as a straight (5 ranks) then all players still in the hand split the pot except in the rare case when a player has a Royal. With no pair on the board, it is impossible for any player to make a better hand

    6. The deck is so small and the possible outcomes are unusually limited. I am taking awhile to consider analytic approaches to analyzing the game.

    Any thoughts, comments, ideas?
