Um, go fish sometimes. In war, it's the highest card sometimes. Some games use it as a wild card. And I'm pretty sure there is a game actually called "Joker". Where the Joker is the most important card. Actually there is a game called "the joker" which requires 4 people (3 minimum but then you have to take out the or heart set) and also a game called "Japanese joker" which has similar rules but is played between 2 people. in those games the Joker is the highest trump card so if you get both of them in one hand and have decent cards, than the round is yours(if you're smart enough). My opinion, The Joker, is the best card game ever created
What is trump in the tarbish game? This is the question you have to ask yourself first of all. It is my understanding that for example if diamonds is trump in tarbish and the ace of diamonds is laid and then the ace of hearts then is played that trump triumphs! Hence the name trump cards (because it triumphs over everything else)
No the Ace of Hearts doesn't beat the Ace of trump. The lowest trump beast anything non-trump. So 6 of trumps beats Ace of anything non-trump. Also note that both the Jack and 9 of trump are higher than the Ace of trump, Jack being highest.

In traditional poker, you cannot create your own pair of cards. Poker is played with a standard deck of 52 cards, and the combinations of cards you can use are predetermined. The standard poker hands include:
High Card
One Pair
Two Pair
Three of a Kind
Straight
Flush
Full House
Four of a Kind
Straight Flush
Royal Flush
These hand rankings are based on specific combinations of cards that can be formed from the standard deck. You cannot introduce custom cards or create your own pair of cards in a traditional poker game.
However, there are many variations of poker, and some home games or informal settings may incorporate house rules or wild cards that introduce new card combinations or special rules. In such cases, it's essential to clarify the rules before playing, as they can vary widely from one game to another.
If you are interested in creating your own card game with custom rules and card combinations, you are free to do so for personal enjoyment or with friends, but it would no longer be considered traditional poker. Keep in mind that creating a balanced and enjoyable card game can be a creative challenge, and it's important to establish clear rules and guidelines for your custom game.
Coz if you are holding A king high straight and so is your opponent then whoever doesn't have the moustache wins the hand.....
No, One card and 4 from the board can be used to make a hand. In some cases, say two people showdown and have a pair of jacks each. The off card will be used as a kicker, the person with the higher kicker wins the main pot.
Chinese is a game is played with four players but can be played three handed or heads up. Each player is dealt 13 cards from a standard 52-card deck. Players must arrange their cards into three poker hands: the front (three cards), the middle (five cards), and the back (five cards). Straights and flushes do not count for the front. The back five cards must be the strongest hand of the three, the middle five must be second strongest, and the front three must be the weakest. Another way to play is to have the middle hand be played with a deuce to seven lowball hand (with the best hand being 7, 5, 4, 3, 2). Once arranged, the cards are then placed face down on the table until all players have set their hands. Players turn the cards face up, and the money is awarded in terms of "points".
Points are the stakes at which the game is being played and can be set at any amount. Each player compares their hands to each individual player. The players compare corresponding hands. Players win two points if they win two out of three hands and additional points are often awarded for winning all three hands against your opponents, which is called getting "scooped." When players tie hands there are different ways of scoring. For example if one player wins two hands and ties the third they win 3 points instead of the normal 4 for scooping. Another aspect of the game is royalties, which are automatic rewards for making certain types of hands, such as straight flushes.

If there are only two players then the dealer button passes from one to the other every hand. In other words, you take turns being first.
You can buy from supermarkets these days - the superstores. Amazon and eBay are great to find good chips. However, most of the chips on eBay and Amazon are made of plastic and have metal inserts. Some people prefer this, as the metal insert makes it feel heavy - i.e. expensive, but actually they feel cheap or low quality. Professionals and casinos use clay and ceramic chips. Ceramic chips are good for customisation. For clay chips I would go for Paulson chips - they are the best. For custom chips, use ceramic chips, they feel good, durable and last a lifetime. You can print any design on them. Avoid companies that require you to submit your own image unless you are good with graphics (adobe illustrator).
It is based on when it is exposed. 1 though 4 are based on the card being exposed during the initial deal.
# As soon as a card is exposed it is announced to all the players and the exposed card will be used as the first burn card.
# If either of the first two cards dealt are exposed due to dealer error the cards are retrieved, the decks changed, and re-dealt.
# If a single card is exposed, anywhere but the "dealer button" position, on the initial deal, the dealer keeps going. Once two cards are dealt to all the players, the exposed card is retrieved and replaced with the top card of the deck. The exposed card is then placed in the muck.
# If either of the "dealer button" position cards are exposed the dealer keeps going, after all the players have received two cards, the exposed card is retrieved, the deck is placed face down on the table, the deck is cut in at least 9 cards, the "dealer button" position gets the next card. The exposed card goes into the muck. # If the card is exposed at any other time during play it is shown to all the players and then placed in the muck.
Wild Bill Hickok was said to have been holding A's and 8's when he was shot. Jack Mcall shot him in the back. But the story is black A's with black 8's and a Q of clubs kicker.
The King of Diamonds is the only card that faces completely to the right, so it doesn't have two eyes.
No. In poker all hand combinations are formed from 5 cards, even pairs(other 3 cards that form the hand are kickers). So if you only have 4 cards of the same suit and no other legitimate hand, the 3 of a kind would win.
However, poker is a game with many variations and different "special" rules and I remember reading about a game that actually allowed 4 card flushes(I think it was ranked just above 3 of a kind), but this is very very very unorthodox and you won't find it in online card rooms and I would be surprised to find it in any casino.
Pokerstars and Full Tilt Poker are some of the most trustworthy poker sites. They have settled their lawsuits with the US government, and are currently ranked as the 2 largest online poker sites.
"As with any company, each casino sets it's own hiring policies. In general, if the casino serves alcohol, most employees are expected to be 21 and over. However, the laws regarding the minimum age to work in a casino establish the age as 18, the minimum age required to gamble."
Yes.
If you have a pair of aces, that's equal to 11 points each. That's 22 points. 9 add 9 is 18, plus 20 (10 add 10) is 38 points. The player with the 9's and 10's would win the pot. In other words, two pairs beat one pair, no matter the cards involved.
Yep. All income is taxable.
