Done!

@Trent this is also a very cool idea. Thanks for organizing it for everyone! Amazing idea.

It's my pleasure. Wade, Alex, and I have loved organizing it, and are really looking forward to the fun!

Belated thought as it's been years since i've actually played any sort of poker:

Is there a standard set of rules that i should read up on before this? Less strategy and more reminder of when/how to bet/call/raise would be helpful.

It looks like I make me able to make it to Origins now. Quite possibly Wednesday in time for this.

Trent, how much are we all chipping in for the hookers?? I'm going to need a hooker after the past few months I've been having.

We will be playing Texas hold em.
You will be dealt 2 cards every hand.
2 players will have bet before seeing their cards. The amounts will be increasing progressively.
The play to the left of the blind bets will then decide to fold, call, or raise based on the 2 cards in their hand.
Play continues until all players have called the highest bet or folded.
One card is burned
3 cards are turned face up, and are considered to be in all players hands.
Another round of betting, starting with the player to the left of the dealer.
Repeat for another up card, then again after a 5th and final card up.
If more than one player remains, best poker hand wins.

Just realized this reading Wade's response and then looking at the original post. Maybe I missed it. I had just assumed this was No-Limit, but I don't see that explicitly stated anywhere. Will this be Limit, or No-Limit?

Woo hoo, OK! I've changed your status to being on the list!



As for the price of hookers, there's no charge when you're playing rugby with them.

hook·er
/ˈho͝okər/

noun

The player in the middle of the front row of the scrum, who tries to hook the ball.
