Puzzles
and Pleasure Pirate Poker Run
with
Prizes
At least seven puzzle caches will be published by Friday,
October 5, for the Puzzles and Pleasure Event. Each cache will have
28 playing cards in or adjacent to the cache. If you want to play,
find at least two caches and please take ONLY ONE CARD out
of each cache. You may choose any card you want, but just take one.
Easier puzzle will have lower cards, harder puzzles will have
higher cards. Bring your cards to the event.
And now for the Puzzle Caches:
We will play a few rounds of PIRATES Hold Em at the event. To
play, take your cards and pair them up into hands of TWO. If you
brought two cards to the event, you can play ONE HAND per round, if
you found six caches, you can play THREE HANDS per round. In
PIRATES Hold Em, you have two cards in your hand and three
community cards are face up. The Dealer will then deal two more to
complete the play. Each player will then select the best five to
score their hand. The best poker hand- "highest score" in each
round will win a prize. Royal Flush, Straight Flush, Four of a
Kind, Full House, Flush, Straight, Three of a Kind, Two Pair, Pair,
High Card. There will be no wild cards. In the event of a ties, the
winning hand holders will pick a card from the deck and the high
card wins.
The Dealer will be GSMx2. The Dealer will identify the
Winner of each hand. A player's pair of cards may only win
once, thus, the winning hand will be discarded. Prior to
each hand, Bigrock95 will designate the prize for the round
from the prize table. You may review the prize listing below.
However, some prizes will be reserved for the raffle. Each attendee
will receive one ticket for the raffle.
