New September Feature just launched at Americas Cardroom – Six Plus Holdem No Limit. This is the new addition to Americas Cardroom suite of games that’s gaining popularity and taking the poker world by storm. This very new concept is expected to be taken by storm, especially by the novice player.

Six Plus Holdem No Limit is a variation of Texas Holdem with fewer cards used. The gameplay is the same, with a couple minor exceptions. Namely, they have removed 2s, 3s, 4, and5s from the deck, and a couple changes in the hand ranking order as well.

Short Deck Hand Ranking (ranked lowest to highest)

1. High card
2. Pair
3. Two Pair
4. Straight (low straight is A6789 and a high straight can still be made normally)
5. 3 of a Kind
6. Full House
7. Flush
8. 4 of a kind
9. Straight Flush
10. Royal Flush

Notice the differences are a 3 of a kind beats a straight and a flush beats a full house.

With fewer cards, the possibilities of making stronger hands increases dramatically, making Six Plus Holdem No Limit an action-packed game.
