The dealer who calls the game assumes calling a ‘casino game’
at the Home Poker table poses only one problem, but one that. That dealer, most
of the time, will need to put himself or herself up as the House, meaning players
are no longer playing against each other in Home poker game games, but rather
all playing against the dealer. The dealer is playing against each player individually
and at the end of the hand, either paying each player's bet or collecting that
player's bet.
Take the classic Blackjack, for example. The dealer who calls Blackjack will
deal everybody a hand, he included. That dealer then plays his hand against
each individual player's hand. Players are no longer bluffing in the hopes of
being that single player who collects the pot, but are rather up against the
dealer, the House. There isn't even the camaraderie of teaming together against
the dealer. Instead, each player is concerned with nothing more than the hand
dealt to them and the one the dealer dealt to himself or herself.
There are no standard variations or features with Home poker game; each one
is unique and played differently. The beauty of converting it from a casino-business
game to a Home poker game is that the dealer will specify what the rules are
and how it differs from the game played in the casino. The dealer may choose
to play the game exactly as it is played in the casino, or with so many variations,
that it truly resembles a Home poker game. The sad part, and what some considers
blasphemy, is that a lot of these are not even poker games. Some of them, like
Blackjack, do not even play with a poker theme. But, as mentioned in Home poker
game section, sometimes the only criterion is that the game involves money and
a deck of cards.
