Sviten Special Makes Its Return Sooner Than Expected
As Cash Game Festival co-founder Martin "Franke" von Zweigbergk promised, Sviten Special, otherwise known as drawmaha, has made it's return. The game is always full of wild action thanks to it not only being in pot limit, but half the hand going to the best five-card draw hand, and the other half going to the best Omaha hand.
In Sviten Special, players first draw before the flop, and the rest of the game plays out similar to how five-card Omaha would. These are the basic rules, but there are few others to keep in mind while playing.
"Franke" just described to some spectators that, "Sviten Special is a great gamble game." It is hard to disagree with this, as 100 big blind or more pots are often flying around the table thanks to the many possibilities of hands that can be created.
