Welcome

Welcome to Community Casino's first SteemIt based game, Texas Hold-em Poker. Or Community Casino Poker. This is regular poker with a little twist on it. Community Poker is meant to be for anyone but especially those who do not have the time to play poker online or those who don't know how texas hold-em works. This may be just what you need.

Rules

The cards will be drawn by random number 1-52. @bethalea will witness and verify this is done fairly. They will correspond to a card in a normal poker deck. We will begin drawing cards and will post them along with the flop in the post. If we were to use one deck for example and removed cards as they were dealt, it wouldn’t be fun if you had an Ace and you see the other three Aces were passed out as well. So we will draw duplicates for players hands. Note that the hole cards (your hand) will be public. The reason for this is because this game is not like any other Hold-em that you have played before. This isn’t Texas Hold-em.. this is Community Poker. So to make it fair and more fun we will draw 1-52 to pick the cards twice per person to get your hand. No duplicates for any one hand but in general multiples of the same card can be shared between players. The Flop, Turn, and River will be a fresh deck as well but no duplicates within the cards residing on the board. So the odds of drawing any particular card for the board/community cards will be 1/52. The idea here is that this is supposed to be fun and stress free. Betting isn’t part of this game in the general sense. The only thing one must do is request a hand, upvote and comment to each of the posts in the entire series. This is a learning experience and supposed to be easy for those who do not know how to play poker, or Hold-em for that matter.

HOW TO PLAY

• You must request a hand on the initial post on Thursdays. You will then receive a hand on Friday where your hand will compete against others' hands while using the community cards to make a 5 card poker hand.
• You must upvote and comment on all four posts to be eligible to win. Including the following (Initial Post, Flop, River and Turn/Winner). The reason for this is to ensure that you are still active and must make you work a little bit. Since regular hold-em requires betting this game will replace that requirement with the comment and upvote to call. Failure to upvote or comment will result in a "FOLD." Might as well stay in though, have some fun and support the challenge all at the same time.

Winner Gets

This will be winner takes all. Community Casino will guarantee a payout of 20 SBD. In poker only one person is the real champ, and for that reason only one person will win here. But you are all winners in our books anyways. That's all that matters.
