Yikes, last thing I wanted is another $10 on Stars. Glad I didn't get it
right!
Ahh yes. Based on my experience in those games I'd say I would rap pat if
there were blue elephants flying past the jelly bean beach. That's cause
the only way I would be in a LA style limit 5 card draw game would be in

Ok, I am going to award the $10 grand prize to Man Beaten by Jacks.
However, Jacks, please note that more than once I mentioned that the Los
Angeles-style game used as a model has NO cap. Just fyi. So, in light of
that fact, let's agree that, "if the betting reaches four or more bets, rap
pat". The purpose of playing like this is two-fold. First, if you draw one

When it's raise, raise, raise to you, in position, and at least one
behind you raps pat on the draw. You hope they have a good enough pat
hand to cap the betting when you raise or reraise, assuming that you
have a worse pat hand.
