There are several other poker variants that resemble Texas hold 'em. Hold 'em is a member of a class of poker games known as [[community card poker|community card games]], where some cards are available for use by all the players. There are several other games that use five community cards in addition to some private cards and are thus like Texas hold 'em.  [[Royal hold 'em]] has the same structure as Texas hold 'em, but the deck contains only Aces, Kings, Queens, Jacks, and Tens.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://pokertips.org/en/rules/variant/royal-holdem/ |title=Royal Hold'em Poker Rules |access-date=January 8, 2007 |website=PokerTips.org }}</ref>  [[Community card poker#Pineapple – Crazy Pineapple – Tahoe hold 'em|Pineapple]] and [[Omaha hold 'em]] both vary the number of cards an individual receives before the flop (along with the rules regarding how they may be used to form a hand), but are dealt identically afterward.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://pokertips.org/en/rules/variant/crazy-pineapple/ |title=Crazy Pineapple Poker Rules |access-date=January 8, 2007 |website=PokerTips.org }}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=http://boardgames.about.com/od/poker/a/omaha_rules.htm |title=Omaha Hold 'Em Poker Rules |access-date=January 8, 2007 |last=Arneson |first=Erik |publisher=About.com |archive-date=February 4, 2007 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070204092503/http://boardgames.about.com/od/poker/a/omaha_rules.htm |url-status=live}}</ref>  In [[Double hold'em|Double Texas Hold'em]], each player receives 3 hole cards and establishes a middle common card that plays with each of the other cards, but the outer cards don't play with each other (each player has two 2-card hands).<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.pokernewsdaily.com/double-holdem-%E2%80%93-basic-tips-16135/ |title=Double Hold'em – Basic Tips |access-date=October 15, 2010 |work=PokerNewsDaily.com |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110527004215/http://www.pokernewsdaily.com/double-holdem-%E2%80%93-basic-tips-16135/ |archive-date=May 27, 2011}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.pokerstrategy.com/news/world-of-poker/PartyPoker-Introduces-Double-Holdem_36445/ |title=PartyPoker Introduces Double Hold'em |access-date=September 20, 2010 |work=PokerStrategy.com |archive-date=November 20, 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121120172057/http://www.pokerstrategy.com/news/world-of-poker/PartyPoker-Introduces-Double-Holdem_36445/ |url-status=dead }}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jq-qQCbCWBo |url-status=dead |title=Online Strategy Guide (YouTube video) |access-date=September 29, 2010 |work=Poker Strategy |archive-date=March 15, 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160315135319/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jq-qQCbCWBo }}</ref>  Alternatively, in [[Community card poker#Double-board hold 'em|Double-board hold'em]] all players receive the same number of private cards, but there are two sets of community cards.

[[Community card poker#Manila|Manila]] is a hold'em variant that was once popular in Australia. In Manila, players receive two private cards from a reduced deck (containing no cards lower than 7).

Manila has several variations of its own, similar to the variants listed above.<ref>{{cite web |author=Honest Casinos |url=http://www.pokerpistols.com/wop_manillapoker.php |title=Manila Poker |access-date=January 8, 2007 |work=Pokerpistols.com |archive-date=August 29, 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120829041931/http://www.pokerpistols.com/wop_manillapoker.php |url-status=live }}</ref>
