The only kind of poker I'm interested in is no-limit hold'em.

I picked no limit hold on because, well, it's the truth. It's the best game on the planet. I think the numbers prove that. However... The way that I would like to interpret this is that is already assumed so besides that game what is your favorite game?

My most favorite go to recreational game is five card draw. I love it. Playing it with blinds of course like hold them. I often buy into a tournament on pokerstars on Sundays playing this.

Other honorable mentions that you forgot are five card stud. For some reason I like this better than seven card. Also you forgot limit hold them. That used to be the go-to back in the day.

I think it's obvious that winning No Limit Hold'em is the most popular and most developed poker game that every poker player likes to play, so I'll vote for it too. I only like to play No Limit Hold'em I hope it will be number one for a long time to come

No Limit Hold'em.

I practically only know the rules of the other variants, I've only played them a few times.

I was never interested in developing in other modalities. If I'm struggling at Hold'em after years of playing...

Since you can only choose one option, I chose Omaha, but I would also vote for Hold'em and Badugi.

I feel more comfortable playing no-limit Texas holdem, but I would really like to delve deeper into Omaha in the future.

I really find it hard to choose a Favourite, I love to play Omaha, 7 Card Stud, 5 Card Draw and No Limit Holdem, Unfortunately it can be a while before most of these games will fill a table, So you either have to sit around waiting for a game to start or try playing 2 different games at the same time.
But you finish up playing different Blind sizes which can add more confusion into the mix, and I like to play to relax, Playing 2 different Poker Styles is really adding pressure that I don't enjoy.
So most of the time I will stick to Holdem as it is the more popular Variant and you can always get a game.

Only No Limit Hold'em. The only option I focused all my attention on. Unfortunately, I just don't have enough time for other games.
