Pineapple Poker Rules

Rules of Pineapple Holdem - Crazy Pineapple



Pineapple is similar to Holdem in using a three-card flop on the board, a fourth boardcard, and then a fifth boardcard. Each player is dealt three holecards (instead of two) at the start. One of these cards is discarded before the flop (in regular Pineapple) or after the flop (in Crazy Pineapple, which is the more common version). The betting is the same as Holdem. At the showdown, a player can use any combination of his remaining two cards and the boardcards. A player who still has three cards in his hand at the showdown has a dead hand.

Rules of Pineapple
All the rules of Holdem apply to Pineapple. The discarding of the third card, and when it occurs, is the only difference.

Crazy Pineapple
1. Crazy Pineapple is usually played high-low split, 8-or-better. A player may use any combination of two holecards and the five boardcards for the high hand and another (or the same) combination for the low hand.
2. If there is no qualifying hand for low, the best high hand wins the whole pot.
