		there is plenty of horse, hose, razz, etc to play on poker's biggest online site and you can play any of these games as cash tables, sng's or tourneys and even turbo-horse or turbo-razz if you wish this isn't a plug for that site, as everyone knows what the biggest site is, it's more a comment that might just be noticed by pokerroom more than the 18 pages of ignored pleas already on this thread as marky says, if people wanna play these games they will deposit there and once they start playing there might just stay there ...

		how do the tournaments work? the tables must get all out of synch on what games they play, right? so you could get moved between tables and play the same game two orbits in a row or maybe miss it for ages? and what happens when it gets down to hand for hand? do they synch games between tables then? do you get crappy situations where the bubble nears with some tables playing crazy suckout-happy games like oh8 and others playing holdem? what about when the last two tables merge - which tables' game do they start with? and at the start of the tournament, do they always start with holdem and go in order? so you never get to play the later games on the first few levels? i'm watching the 2007 50k on espn and these things seem important.

		Jex, I think it works the same way as blind levels: Eg, if you are on one table and I am on the other, the following scenario could occur. Both tables get the message "The blinds will go up to X-level after this hand. They will be in place for 10 minutes" On your table, the hand just started, but on my table it was just about to finish. So the blinds move up on my table immediately. On your table, though, 8 players get disconnected, and then the 2 players in the hand time out on every street. So by the time you finish the hand, there are only like 4 minutes left in the blind level. Wow, that was a pointless long-winded analogy. Short answer, HORSE rounds go like blind levels. Also, HORSE tourneys don't exist on this site.
