How to play the real Big 2?

[destinygurls]

Recently, I been reading posts on Big 2.5 game, but as I am reading I found quite a number saying that the real Big 2 game includes playing out triple cards, which I don't really understand....

You see, I learned how to play Big 2 game, by playing viwawa, but most people said that Big 2 game includes playing of 1,2,3,4 and 5 cards out, which is really making me confused, so I would like to ask the people out there, how is the actual big 2 game played?

there are always variations out there. the basic is the same. some pple do play 3 cards..some don't.

I see....
But is there any specific rules for each different kind of Big 2?

[sassy_girl]

well. u go see to other thread then it actually tell us which best cards we want, 1,2,3,4,or 5. The real big 25 here is only 1 , 2(pair), and 5(straight etc)

Oh....
Then do you know what what like of cards can we put out for 3 and 4?

3cards is the 3same of a kind cards that you put in full house
4cards i 4of a kind without that extra card
but as far as i know, people do play 3cards, but not 4 ._.

Triples is dependent, if the people you are playing with agreed to playing tripless, then playing is allow, else no. The rules is generally the same!

4 cards out is Dumb dumb. Who will throw 4 cards? may i ask :X with four of a kind. You can discard one more lousy card together? who will dont wan? HAha.. even is a 2, will willing go with it. example: 4 Jacks and 2 diamond example. and last card As at hand? is a winning hand right? Seldom got card to win 4 of a kind. there is but very very little chance. Opps right right

Agree! Four of a kind with the extra card is smarter.

yeah Big 2 has lots of variations, but I believe the most confusing rule from variation to variation is the flush rule. There are 2 flush rules:

1. Suite plays: If both players has the same suit, the flush with the highest card will win. If both players have different suits, the flush with the higher suit wins. For example, if someone has a flush with a diamond 2, it will lose to a club flush with 2 or lower. I noticed that Big 2.5 has the rule I prefer, which is the suite order.

2. Top card plays: If both players has the same suite, the flush with the highest card will win. If both players have different suites, the flush with the higher card wins. For example, if someone has a flush with a diamond 2, it will beat a spade flush with highest card being an Ace or lower.
