Short Deck (6+)
A 36-card Hold'em variant that removes cards 2 through 5. It is designed for 2–6 players and produces stronger made hands more often.

13-card Chinese Poker
Each player receives 13 cards and arranges them into a 3-card front hand, 5-card middle hand, and 5-card back hand. The back must rank at least as high as the middle, and the middle at least as high as the front.
