Notes

(1)

No Limit Hold’em Crapshoot plays like regular No Limit Hold’em, except in lieu of a turn card, the button rolls two dice. The roll of the dice represents the value of the rank of the turn “card” (a value of 11 is a Jack, a value of 12 is a Queen, and the turn “card” can never be a King or an Ace). The turn “card” has no suit UNLESS: (a) craps (2, 3, or 12) is rolled in which case the turn “card” plays as any suit, (b) hard four (2-2) or six (3-3) is rolled in which case the turn “card” plays as any black suit, or (c) hard eight (4-4) or hard ten (5-5) is rolled in which case the turn “card” plays as any red suit. If the button rolls a 7 or 11, they win a big blind from the pot (if the player was all in, winning the big blind from the pot makes them no longer all in pending turn and river action). If the button rolls craps (2, 3, or 12), they must pay two big blinds to the pot (unless they are all in)

  • Unlimited $60 rebuys during first hour (must be below starting stack); all players may add-on for $60 at first break
