I purchased this Dunhill 475 Shell Briar in rough condition on ebay. It's a 1950s or early 1960s Dunhill I believe. The exterior briar was in pretty good sha. Greek hold 'em follows the same rules as Omaha, except that each player is only dealt two cards, same as in Texas hold 'em. In Greek hold 'em each player must use both hole cards along with 3 of the total available community cards to make the strongest five card hand, unlike Texas hold 'em where each player may play the best five card poker hand from any combination of the seven cards.
