Different online casinos have different policies. You'll have to ask the casino where you have the chips for their policy regarding transferring chips.

The hand ranking is *** followed (best toworst): 1) Straight flush is the best hand youcan have the hand contains five cards in a sequence in the same suit (Royalflush is when you got the same suit and the highest sequence 10 to ace).2) Four of a kind also known as quadscontains four cards of the same rank and any other card.3) Full house (full boat) is a hand thatcontains three matching cards of one rank and two matching cards of anotherrank.4) Flush is when all five cards are ofthe same suit, but not in sequence5) Straight is a hand that contains fivecards of sequential rank in at least two different suits.6)Three of a kind also known as trip or aset is a poker hand that contains three cards of the same rank, plus two cardswhich are not of this rank nor the same as each other.7) Two pair A poker that contains twocards of the same rank, plus two cards of another rank (that match each otherbut not the first pair), plus any card not of either rank.8) One pair is a poker hand that containstwo cards of one rank, plus three cards which are neither of this rank nor thesame as each other.9) High card and is a poker hand made ofany five cards not meeting any of the above requirements. Essentially, no handis made, and the only thing of any potential meaning in the player's hand istheir highest card.34 What is a bounty tournament?A bounty tournament is just like anyother regular tournament but in bounty you get bonus on every player you bustout of the game (wins an all-in of his).At the start of the tournament everyplayer is required to pay a certain amount of money, and a certain percentageof the prize pool is save for every player "bounty", when a player loses theperson who busted him out will take the money from his bounty.

If you've played some Texas hold 'em andyou're looking to switch it up, you might want to try Omaha high. The rules ofOmaha are very similar to Texas hold 'em. The only differences are that you aredealt four cards instead of two. You have to use exactly two cards from your handand three from the board - no more and no less to get the best hand you can. Alot of players have lost huge pots in Omaha holding a ten in their hand withAKQJ on the board - in order to have a straight you need a ten and an A, K, Q,or J.

There are an awful lot of similarities and many different varieties of Omahapoker, trying to figure out new games will make you a better poker player.

The rules to Cadaco Tripoley Dice Game include:

1) Either divide the chips up equally between all of the players, or if you are playing for money, each player buys chips. Each round starts with every player placing one chip on each section of the Tripoley board. The sections of the board are:

• Pot
• Kitty
• 10
• Jack
• King Queen
• Queen
• King
• Ace
• 8-9-10 All One Suit

2) The dealer shuffles a regulation deck of playing cards, jokers removed making a 52 card deck, and deal each player, and one extra hand, cards one-by-one until all of the cards are distributed. Depending on the number of players, some players may have one more card than others. This does not matter as the deal rotates around the table each hand and the extra cards will even out. The extra hand is not used in the basic game. It can come into play in one of the most popular variations.

3) The players who have "money cards" now collect the chips in each section. In the basic game the money cards are all Hearts, with the exception of the 8-9-10. For example, the player with the Queen of Hearts collects the chips in that section. The only section that may be a tie is the 8-9-10 section. If this is the case, the players who tie split the chips.

4) Each player then chooses their best 5 card poker hand for the next round. The dealer opens the action by checking or betting. Play continues to the left with each player either folding, calling the bet or raising. Once the last player to act calls, the best poker hand wins the pot section and all of the bets. In the case of a tie, they are split.

5)
Players now place their poker hands back with the rest of their cards and the dealer places the lowest card in his or her hand face up on the table or board. Each player is required to play their cards starting with the next card of the same suit. For example, the dealer plays the Two of Clubs. The player with the Three of Clubs places it on the table, then the player with the Four of Clubs, etc. Play continues this way until one of the cards is missing, caused by the dead hand, or the Ace of the suit is played. The player who played the last card must then play the lowest card from any other suit in their hand. If they are unable to change suits the action passes to the player to the left, who must change suits. The first player to play every hand in his or her hand wins the chips in the Kitty section. Each other player pays the winner one chip for each card remaining in their hand. This concludes the round. The player to the dealers left becomes the new dealer and each player ante's a chip to each section of the board again.
The game ends when the players decide to stop either by prearrangement or agreement or when one player has all of the chips. To distribute any chips that remain on the board at the end, deal five cards to each player for a last round of poker. The best hand wins the remaining chips.
