How do you determine if you start with 3 or 5 cards
There is several possible variants of NLP8, the one i usually play in real life is the following
-You start with 3 holecards and 2 community cards
-after the flop there is 3 holecards/player and 5 community cards.
-after the turn there is 3 holecards/player and 7 community cards.
-after the river there is 3 holecards/player and 8 community cards
Sorry for late reply.
Just made a new update to the rules https://docdro.id/bFzWtoU
Other versions

Still not happy with any version, all 3 works but not really ideal.
