Geocache Description:

Just a quick and easy game of poker fun with a prize!!! You should be able to collect them all in one outting.

Brought to you by HomeStarCaching and The Perfect Woman this series was inspired by a few other Poker caches we have seen around, most of witch have ended by the time that I had found them, so I deceided to start my own. Once Poker has been played, the caches will remain for all to find and sign the log, and we may even start another game at some point.
Some basic rules:
-There are 50 cards in the deck (including 2 jokers and no 2’s), so ten people can play.
-The deck was shuffled and each card randomly given a number.
-Please only claim a poker card if you intend to visit all five caches.
-Claim only one poker card at each cache per cacher's name or one per geocaching.com account.
-All caches are hidden the same way.
-Each location has a different set of numbers, so you can't cheat and only go to one cache. All five caches in the series must be visited to have a valid poker hand.
-The game will end when 10 cachers have five cards in their "hand" or on May 31, 2006, whichever comes first.
-The winning cacher will receive a new CamelBak Hydration System (A must for the serious Geocacher).
-What HomeStarCaching and The Perfect Woman say…goes, they are the judges and will make the final decision.
How to Play:
1. At each location, find a 35mm film canister.
2. Choose a poker number.
3. Write your caching name on the back of the number.
4. Leave your number in the cache.
5. Sign the log book.
6. Log your visit at geocaching.com.
7. Include the poker number you have chosen in your log.
8. Visit the next cache(s) in the series.
9. You are done playing when you have chosen one number from each cache.
E-mail us if you want to know the cards you're holding, but remember once you pick a card you cannot change it.

OK well it looks like we have completed our first hand and Gone Postal has taken it with three of a kind. Although the game is over I will leave the caches active and they can still be logged at least for a while. Look for a new game of three card poker with a chance to trade in a card coming soon. Thanks for playing!!!!
