Poker Run Rules POKER RUN RULES 1. Riders will pick up a registration packet at Cedar Breaks Lodge in Brian Head or Loose Wheels in Duck Creek. The packet will include a poker card and a map that shows the 6 stop locations. At each stop, one card will be drawn from a bag containing one full playing card deck (52 cards) including two joker cards per deck. The Poker Stop Event staff will place a unique stamp on the score card for the rank and suit of the card drawn. The playing card will be returned to the bag. 2. The last stop will be Cedar Breaks Lodge where the rider will pick their last card and will be given a raffle ticket when the cards are turned in. 3. Participants must submit their score card no later than 4:30 p.m. at Cedar Breaks Lodge. 4. The awards ceremony will begin around 4:45 pm or shortly thereafter for door prizes and winners announced. 5. The following rules will be used to rank the completed score cards. Prizes will be awarded to the best hand, 2nd best hand and worst hand along with door prizes. STANDARD POKER HAND RANKING There are 52 cards in the pack and the ranking of the individual cards, from high to low, is ace, king, queen, jack, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, Joker. There is no ranking between the suits – for example the king of hearts and the king of spades are equal and the Joker card is wild. A poker hand consists of five cards and the rider will throw two cards out. The categories of a hand, from highest to lowest, are listed below. Any hand in a higher category beats any hand in a lower category (for example a three of a kind beats any two pairs). Between hands in the same category, the rank of the individual cards decides which hand is better. Five Card Draw: Players will be allowed to change their hand (with the object of improving it) by discarding two unwanted cards. Categories 1. Royal Flush 2. Straight Flush 3. Four of a Kind 4. Full House 5. Flush 6. Straight 7. Three of a Kind 8. Two Pairs 9. Pair 10. High Card .

The first team or individual to have all of their pegs in the SAFE area wins the game. Players: Four Players: use 4 boards and 2 decks of poker cards with the Jokers (two per deck). Play is two, two-person teams. Six Players: use 6 boards and 3 decks of poker cards with the Jokers (two per deck). Play is three, two-person teams.

Each two-person team has peg colors or shapes that compliment each other so that others know that they are a team. Each team sits across from each other. Dealing: Shuffle the deck and deal each player five cards face down. The remaining deck is placed face down in the center of the table. Player to the left of the dealer makes a play from his hand, discards the card, then draws one card from the deck. Penalty: If player fails to draw a card from the deck after making a play, on the players next turn he draws two cards, but cannot play or look at them until his next turn, but must play from the four cards he has in his hand.

  • Genii Session 2007-12 Brief Updated History Of
    Genii Session By Roberto Giobbi A Brief Updated History of Playing Cards When I published the German version of Card College Volume 1 in 1992, I included a short essay on the history of playing cards. In later editions I expanded on it and made a few corrections, among other smaller things I had committed a bigger mistake, namely that of assuming that today’s playing cards originated from tarot cards. The truth, as so often, is exactly the opposite, because playing cards were already in use in Europe in the second half of the 14th century whereas the game of Tarocchi and with it the Tarot cards was only invented in the first part of the 15th century in Italy. These mistakes were corrected in later editions of Card College and I’m therefore publishing this updated version of my essay for the benefit of all those who have the first few editions (we now have about 19,000 copies of Card College Volume 1 in the market). At the end of the essay I have also added a small annotated bibliography for all who would like to obtain more information about playing cards, their history, use, symbolism etc., a most fascinating subject. Rather than calling playing cards a prop, as it is often done in the literature, I would like to consider them to be an instrument of the card conjurer, like the piano or the violin is an instrument to a musician, and I would even dare saying that cards are the most important and most widely used instrument in all of conjuring.

  • PLAYING CARDS in LUCCA Franco Pratesi − 5 Ottobre 1995
    PLAYING CARDS IN LUCCA Franco Pratesi − 5 ottobre 1995 Introduction At the present time, Lucca is one of the ten provinces into which the Italian region of Tuscany is divided (the last one, Prato, having been acknowledged only a couple of years ago). Viewed from today, one may find it surprising that the production and the use of cards in Lucca were so relevant as to deserve a treatment of their own, because this is to be expected for cards in an independent state as it was Tuscany or in its chief town, Florence. There are, however, a number of reasons which induced me to carry out research on the history of cards in Lucca. Historically, it must be realised that Lucca had, indeed, been an independent state for centuries, either as a republic or as a duchy, although not quite among the greatest in Europe. It was the last town of Tuscany to enter the Grand Duchy, in 1847, a few years before the formation of the Italian Kingdom. There are technical reasons too; in particular, several tarot packs from Lucca, preserved from old times, have the number of cards in the pack and some figures which are surprising. Apart from the keen interest in Lucca cards, which has recently arisen in the prolific environment of English collectors, I could find no specific study on them, except for a short communication, which will be mentioned, and used, in the following text. (1) A chronological order will be followed below, even if matters gathered are in themselves rather scattered − several original documents, a couple of cards, some laws, a book, and so on.

  • Tarot 1 Tarot
    Tarot 1 Tarot The tarot (/ˈtæroʊ/; first known as trionfi and later as tarocchi, tarock, and others) is a pack of playing cards (most commonly numbering 78), used from the mid-15th century in various parts of Europe to play a group of card games such as Italian tarocchini and French tarot. From the late 18th century until the present time the tarot has also found use by mystics and occultists in efforts at divination or as a map of mental and spiritual pathways. The tarot has four suits (which vary by region, being the French suits in Northern Europe, the Latin suits in Southern Europe, and the German suits in Central Europe). Each of these suits has pip cards numbering from ace to ten and four face cards for a total of 14 cards. In addition, the tarot is distinguished by a separate 21-card trump suit and a single card known as the Fool. Depending on the game, the Fool may act as the top trump or may be played to avoid following suit. François Rabelais gives tarau as the name of one of the games played by Gargantua in his Gargantua and Pantagruel;[1] this is likely the earliest attestation of the French form of the name.[citation needed] Tarot cards are used throughout much of Europe to play card games. In English-speaking countries, where these games are largely unplayed, tarot cards are now used primarily for divinatory purposes. Occultists call the trump cards and the Fool "the major arcana" while the ten pip Visconti-Sforza tarot deck.

All Manufacturing Rights Reserved. 2 For Becky One Final Time 3 IMPROVED INVISIBLE DECK How To Make It Yourself Devin Knight The rough-and-smooth principle has been around since the early 1920s. The Invisible Deck was invented by Joe Berg in 1936 and was first released as the Ultra-Mental Deck. My deck is an improvement because it deals with two issues. First, with this deck you can show the backs. I am not the first to think of doing this; Joe Berg, Aldini, Jochen Zmeck, Alan Shaxon, Cody Fisher, and Lawrence Turner have all developed methods. Second, a lot of magicians have trouble handling the Invisible Deck. They have trouble separating the cards, or have trouble with too many reversed cards showing up in the spread. The cards are either too snug or too loose. My deck deals with these problems and makes doing the Invisible Deck almost foolproof. Although others have thought of ways to show the backs, I think I am the first to solve the issues of easily separating the cards and not having unwanted reversed cards show. How The Deck Is Made: This deck is not made like the standard Invisible Deck because the full backs of the cards are not roughed. Only the lower halves of the backs of odd-value cards are roughed.
