We play by rotating the deal; each person deals three hands, choosing which type to play, usually a different style each hand. The variations are pretty much unlimited and sometimes insane - for the most part it's hold 'em, spit, baseball, draw, misere, cincinatti, but towards the end of a session any number of wild cards might be introduced at the dealer's whim. My preferred thing is to turn any hand into a misere game. Spit misere is fun, I think.
Like I say, though, very low stakes and a lot of fun. Much skitting and aping of TV poker presenters and players - silly nicknames, stupid slang names invented on the spot for particular cards or hands. Fun.
