Chinese Poker

 

Overview :

Chinese poker played with regular 52 cards deck (no jokers and wild cards).Each player gets 13 cards, therefore only 4 players can be play in each table. Chinese poker has been played with units/points , each point equal amount of money that is defined before the game started . In the end of each round you will lose or win points : lets say you are in a table where each unit/point equal $10 , and if you lose 3 point in the round you will lose $30.

Objective :

After you have dealt with your 13 cards you need to arrange them to 3 different hands of : back (5 cards) ,middle (5 cards) and front (3 cards), but you have some rule: the bottom hand most be stronger then the middle hand and the middle hand must be stronger then the front hand. "Wrong arrangement" - which means that you didn't follow the rule and this makes you pay a lot to each player.

Notes :
  • Straights and flushes do not count in the front hand (3 card ) - you can make only - Three of a kind, pair and high card.
  • With the above been said you can make "Clean Sweep" - that will required 3 straights or 3 flushes.

Scoring :

Right now you already know that payments are made by points, but how do you count points?
After each player arranges his cards,each player reveals his 13 cards then each player compares his hands against every bodyelse's hands, you will gain 1 point when your hand beats your opponent and you lose 1 point when his hand beats yours see hand for example:
