Default Re: \"dollar bill\" poker

Its called bullshit poker....a popular game in the bars on payday here in the 70's....most of us made sure to be carrying a $20 bill in special spot in our wallets that had at least 6 1's on the serial#...3 pair never played...but 6 aces was usually good enough. Players (any number) would anounce in turn a poker hand relected on his bills serial# whether correct or not...each subsequent announced hand must be better than previous announced hand, you could check your hand 3 times max...at any time another player can call bullshit when you announce your hand and look at the bill...if hand was legitimate he loses his bill...if announcer was bluffing the guy that called bullshit wins your bill. The stacked bill was usually profitable only once in each bar, as many fights would break out after showing down 6 aces haha... [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
