more game types

[snex]

How difficult is it to add more game types? Would like to see BigO and Double Board Omaha (4 and 5 card) as these games are gaining popularity.

Not hard at all, I'll see if I can add something in the next week or two.

5 card and 6 card Omaha working. I believe Big O is 5 card, so that should be one down.

Not sure how to implement Double Board, seems a bit less trivial. Especially if GUI support is needed.

BigO is 5 card Omaha Hi/Lo

I do not need GUI support but can't speak for anybody else.

Thank you so much for your work on this.

hi lo support is present. The id for the gametype is o5/8 (as in 8 or better)

So full command would be "ps-eval -g o5/8 As2d3h4c5s 6s7d8h9cTs"

You can try building the fork from the pull request and testing it out.

Looks like it works - I wonder how hard it would be for split pot games to list the per-pot equity of each hand rather than just the total equity?

[TZubiri]

You can probably work out the answer as-is by comparing the results from the hi version with the results from the hi lo version.
