Experience a fresh twist on Texas Hold’em with No Limit Pineapple tournaments on Stake Poker. Featuring five weekly events and affordable $1 buy-ins.

If you are looking to spice up your typical poker routine, Stake Poker has the perfect solution. Moving beyond the standard Texas Hold'em, Stake is now offering No Limit Pineapple Tournaments, combining the familiarity of community cards with a strategic discard twist that keeps every player on their toes.

Why Play Pineapple Poker?

Pineapple Poker is the "cool cousin" of Texas Hold’em. While the betting structure remains No Limit, the game starts with each player receiving three hole cards instead of two.

The catch? You must discard one of those cards pre-flop, creating a higher potential for strong hands and explosive action.
