Open-face Chinese poker is typically played as a two- to three-person game, though it can also be played with four people.
7th, 2015, TonyBet Poker Ambassador Isabelle Mercier became the first Open-Face Chinese Poker Progressive Pineapple world champion. In December 2014, TonyBet hosted the first-ever World Championship of OFC where Jennifer Shahade won the High Roller and Mikal Blomlie won the Main Event. The game was introduced to the United States in 2012. Professional poker player Alex Kravchenko, who is credited with introducing the game to the Russian high-stakes community, describes the game as 'spreading like a virus'. The game originated in Finland during the mid-2000s and spread to Russia a few years later.
