  • Tricky Dice a Game Design by Andy Miner Using Square Shooters Poker
    Tricky Dice A game design by Andy Miner using Square Shooters Poker Dice Players: 4 Playing Time: about an hour Required Components: Standard deck of 52 playing cards (no jokers) One complete set of nine Square Shooters poker dice Bag/pouch to hold dice Pen and paper for scoring Order of Play 1. Before the Bid One player is chosen to be dealer. The dealer deals eight cards to every player. He then places all dice in the bag and passes it to his left. Each player in turn draws two dice from the bag and rolls them, placing them face up in front of him. After rolling his two dice, the dealer draws the last remaining dice from the bag and rolls it. The face-up side of this die will show the trump suit and highest card value for this hand. Note: If a player rolls a joker on his dice, he may turn the die to any other side that he wishes, after looking at his cards. However, it cannot be changed after that. Note: If the dealer rolls a joker space on the trump die, he may look at his cards and turn the die to one of the other five sides (his choosing) to determine the trump suit and high card for the hand. 2. The Bid Starting to the dealer’s left, each player may bid (or pass) on how many tricks they think they can take this hand with the help of a partner. The player on the dealer’s left must start with the minimum bid of four tricks, but may start higher.

We also love showing off the garden that is loved and tendered by our Garden Club. Thank you to everyone who stopped by and made this such a great success for us. Old-Time Jobs That Are New Again Despite economic changes and advances in technology, many traditional jobs that began decades or centuries ago are seeing a boost in business. Butcher: Before supermarkets were common, neighborhood butchers prepared fresh cuts of meat for customers. With many of today’s consumers desiring locally sourced food, butcher shops are making a comeback. Blacksmith: The ancient practice of forging objects from iron nearly faded away when machines began doing the work, but a trend in handcrafted metalwork has revived the trade. Milkman: Many homes had fresh bottles of milk delivered to their door until grocery stores and refrigerators made the service nearly obsolete by the 1970s. The current farm-to-table movement has some farms offering home delivery of their milk and dairy products. Cobbler: Shoemakers have been August Birthday Bash! making footwear by hand for Happy Birthday to all of our MacKenzie Place Residents with a birthday in August! centuries, and specialty shops still cater to customers who want handmade goods or prefer to repair rather than replace a pair of shoes. Barber: In years past, barbers provided a haircut and a shave as well as a shop where men could socialize.

  • 2606 Poker Dice
    2606 Poker Dice Write a program that evaluates a set of poker dice “hands” and displays the ordered results. Here are the evaluation rules, taken from Hoyle’s Rules of Games, ed. by Albert H. Morehead and Geoffrey Mott-Smith (The New American Library of World Literature, 1963), pp. 227-28. • Five dice are used. These ::: [are] standard dice, marked with numbers [1 through 6] ::: . • Theoretically any number may play, but actually the game is played by groups of two to five people, usually in a restaurant or bar to decide which pays the check. • Each player has three rolls. His object is to make the best possible poker hand, ranking: Five of a kind, high; four of a kind; full house; three of a kind; two pair; pair; high ”card.” Aces (1s) rank above sixes ::: Straights do not count. • ::: Here are the evaluation rules for potentially ambiguous poker hands, taken from a playing card included in a “Mohawk”-brand deck of poker cards: • Full house: three of a kind and two of a kind. Ex.: 8, 8, 8, and 6, 6. Hand with the highest three cards wins over any other full house. • Two Pair: Ex.: Q, Q, and 10, 10. Hand with the highest pair wins. If there is a tie, hand with the highest remaining (or fifth) card wins. • One Pair: if two are playing, hand with the highest value wins. Ex.: two 4’s beats two 3’s. Highest remaining card in-hand breaks a tie. With poker dice it is possible for hands to tie.
