re: we got any pedro players up in here?

Anybody up for a game?

I'm in Houston and would be willing to play. Been 30 years though.

While we are talking about Cajun card games, my favorite has to be Bouree.

I find it funny no gaming establishment “casino” would pick this up along side a poker table. Low risk to the player if bets and bourees are reasonable. And high returns to the player as you need to get 3 tricks to win otherwise the pot rolls over. So table of 4 or 5 minimum would ensure bigger pots and more bourees. No betting and going all in keeps it simple for a novice player, but just make sure you don’t play cut throat.

You can have a 2 trick winner.

The app has been updated and is a lot more user friendly. I play with every night.

Yep, but I ain't following non-trump suit.

Cut throat is garbage. Follow suit is the only true game.

We play Bourre (booray) and Casino all the time. Never played Pedro.

Match pot bourre sucks. Ive seen some guys lose a lot of money playing that way.

When we play everyone brings a roll of quarters. .25 ante, .50 cent bouree. If we have 5 or less we play a widow. If you have 3 people 2 have to play, 4 people 3 have to play, 5 people 3 have to play, 6 people 4 have to play.

Quarters would be my kind of game.

I remember playing with my grandma and grandpa for nickel a ante on holidays. Those were the days.

Being the novice player I was, I would alway end up playing something wrong and getting accused of playing cut throat.

I didn’t know about the card game casino.

By the way, it was at a Gulf Coast casino, for a short time, but was removed after week because of too many disputes.

I found that in this article where it referenced it because Bouree was also the game that took down Gilbert Arenas back in 2010, from the Washington City Paper after a dispute with a gun.
