India's independent online poker room, PokerBaazi, has expanded its game offerings by launching a new poker variant, Super Hold’em.
Super Hold’em presents an intriguing twist on the traditional Texas Hold’em format. The game closely resembles Hold’em in terms of rules and betting patterns, but it sets itself apart by dealing three hole cards to each player instead of the usual two.
What makes Super Hold’em unique compared to Hold’em and Omaha variants is that players can use any combination of their three hole cards to create the best five-card Hold’em hand. However, they must use at least one of their hole cards to form the final hand.
