What is mixed game poker?

Deuce-to-seven Single Draw is a five-card lowball game in which the lowest qualifying hand wins. Every card is private, players draw only once, and the number of cards each opponent exchanges becomes an important source of information.

Deuce-to-seven Triple Draw uses the same lowball ranking as Single Draw but gives each remaining player as many as three exchanges. The extra draws reward hands that begin with several coordinated low cards and create repeated decisions about how many cards to keep.

Ace-to-five Triple Draw is a five-card lowball game in which aces are low and straights and flushes are ignored. That single ranking change makes many combinations that are dangerous in 2-7 excellent here.

Badugi is a four-card lowball draw game. A complete hand needs four different ranks and four different suits; if ranks or suits conflict, only one of those cards can count toward the final hand.

Badacy, also commonly spelled Badacey, is a five-card split-pot draw game. Half the pot goes to the best ace-to-five low using all five cards, and half goes to the best Badugi that can be formed from the hand.

Badeucy is a five-card split-pot draw game. Half the pot is awarded to the best deuce-to-seven low and half to the best Badugi that can be made from the same five cards.

Five-Card Draw is a traditional high-hand poker game and a useful introduction to the draw format. Each player sees only their own cards, so betting patterns and the number of cards exchanged provide most of the available information.
