This

I would assume it is £50+£10+£5 given the £65 buyin on Coral?

The structure and rebuy rules would be useful my questions would be:-

1) What are the blinds going to be and how will they adjust throughout the event?
2) Is it unlimited rebuy?
3) When can I rebuy? Do I have to have less than 100BB, can I stick 200BB on the table? How high can I go?
4) Are tables 9 handed?

What are the rules for "Crazy Pineapple"?

Ditto for Irish? When played this in cash you got 3 cards, do you get 3 or 4 preflop?

In normal Irish its 3 cards and you discard one card after the round of betting on the flop, in pineapple you discard befor the flop

[TGBane]

Really looking forward to this.
Much better schedule than last year.

You are correct that in Pineapple that you dicard before the flop however in this case the game in question is Crazy Pineapple and the third card is discarded after the flop
Crazy Pineapple
Players discard their third (unwanted or unneeded) card after the flop, before the fourth community card is dealt.
The question to be answered:Are we playing Limit,  Pot Limit or No Limit

Irish however you get dealt four cards and two are discarded after the flop ie before the turn

[Dawnie]

I play Irish in DC games and the button choses but the normal game is 3 card, but I agree more importantly is it PL,NL or L

I can see madness ensuing weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

In Crazy Pineapple, 1 card is indeed discarded after the betting on the flop, so before the turn comes.

During our APAT event in Belgium last month, we had Crazy Pineapple as our opening side event.
We played it No Limit.

It was the very first time that in Belgium a casino hosted a Crazy Pineapple event, and players liked it very much.
A lot of the had to ask us the exact rules, but they joined and liked it.

I believe IrishTom fitted this into the WCOAP schedule because we were planning to have it in Belgium and he thought it would a good idea to have it as well... And I"m very looking forward to playing this event

From the replies I"m more confused than normal!

Hopefully the formats will go up soon, please don"t make it fixed limit tho!

Regular Pineapple => 3 cards dealt, you have to discard one after the preflop betting round, so before the flop !!!
Crazy Pineapple => 3 cards dealt, you have to discard one after the postflop betting round, so before the turn !!!

Irish => 4 cards dealt, you have to discard two after the postflop betting round, so before the turn !!!


And then in all games, play continues just as a normal Holdem game.

Yeah, that"s not going to help, Tom

Tell me why Matt

Looks pretty clear to me: you get dealt 3 cards; there"s a betting round... after that betting round you have to discard 1 card; and then the flop is dealt...

All-ins pre and/or post flop will be interesting to play out
