Deal it Twice

Perhaps you think you had your current hand all figured out, but iHoldem gives you an option that may leave you questioning your own strategy. Deal it Twice is a feature that has becoming extremely popular in live cash games, so why not online?

When two players go all-in, they will have the option to deal the turn and river cards twice. For example:

Player A is dealt Qc Jc, and Player B is dealt Kh 10h. After the first round of betting, the flop comes down Jh As 10c. Both players push all in, knowing that they don’t have the best hand, but do have an above average chance of making a good hand. Thus, when the turn and river are dealt twice, it gives the players twice as many chances to hit their hands.

For ‘Deal It Twice’ to activate, both players must agree to it. It is entirely optional; if one player does notagree, then the turn and river will be dealt once as per usual. There is also the option present to permanently disable Deal It Twice, so only those players who opt to actually have Deal It Twice active need to worry about making a decision after they go all-in.
