Geocache Description:

"Shuffle up and deal!"


This cache will take you to a beautiful park in Reading and through the historical Hessian Camp used during the Revolutionary War. But in order to find this cache, you'll have to brush up on the rules and lingo used in my favorite game... Texas Hold'em, the Cadillac of Poker!

At each of the four preliminary stages (35mm) you will be asked a question. If you answer it correctly you will get the coordinates for the next stage, if you answer it incorrectly you will be searching at a "bogus" set of coordinates for a cache that's not there. Choose wisely and only move "All-In" when you have the nuts!

Please keep your trade items "poker themed". I have started this cache out with eight decks of brand new playing cards. The FTF will have to take a deck or two just to make room. It's a 1 mile hike from the parking area and back to your car. You can park very close to the first stage at the posted coordinates. All of the stages have been painted camouflage. Good luck!


"Listen, here's the thing, if you can't spot the sucker
in your first half hour at the table, then you are the sucker."
Mike McDermott (Matt Damon) from the movie "Rounders"
