Well, i was first going to give you a sarcatic “yeah right”, but after a bit of research found this description at xhttp://www.paddypowerpoker.com/gs_badugi.php:
Quote:
Badugi is a new game taking the poker world by storm. It is an action packed game combining the most exciting elements of poker with a new spin on hand values and psychology. Having a bad run of cards on the holdem table? Fear not! In Badugi a premium hand has no pairs, no flushes and nary a paint card in sight. Badugi is a triple draw four-card low-hand wins game! The best low hand is comprised of four cards, with none of the same suit, and none of the same rank: i.e. ace, two, three, four all of different suits are the best possible hand!!
When you find yourself holding 4 cards of different rank and suit then you are holding a…BADUGI.
So yes, i agree this name has the potential to be huge.
