2 Card Manila

2 Card Manila is played with a reduced deck of 32 cards and a maximum of 11 players. Here, the Ace cannot be used as a loc card to form a straight. A flush also beats a full house in any reduced deck games.

11 players x 2 cards = 22; Community and burn cards = 9; Total = 31
Players are dealt two cards starting with the blind.
The flop comes down one at a time until all five community cards are face up on the table.
After all bets are called, a card is burnt. There is a burn card between each community card, making a total of four burn cards. In 2 Card Manila the two hole cards must be used, as well as 3 from the board.
Players are required to either bet or check as each card is opened, or fold.
The betting structure for 2 Card Manila is $2, $4, $4, $4, $8.
The amount raised on the first round must be double the blind, which is then added to the blind. For example, in a $2 game, the raise should be $4, making a total call of $6.
In the next rounds, the raise is only double the blind. So, for a bet of $4, the first raise makes it $8, and the second raise makes it $12. When more than two players are in the game, only three raises are allowed in each round.
For the showdown, players form their best five-card hand using two hole cards and three community cards.
An Ace may only count high in a straight. As an example, A 7 8 9 10 is not a straight but 10 J Q K A is. The highest hand is awarded the pot.
