AnabelVIII
is that the right term, poker is hard
Shard
Yes, it is.
Ⓓᴀɴ ⓈᴀʀᴛᴏʀɪꙄ
Hahaha it is, yup
AnabelVIII
also i think beckett wins cause he has a jack of hearts and that is a pair? watch me learn poker through dwrp
Ⓓᴀɴ ⓈᴀʀᴛᴏʀɪꙄ
Spoilers: lying liars who lie are sometimes dishonest.
AnabelVIII
shocking
Ⓓᴀɴ ⓈᴀʀᴛᴏʀɪꙄ
Oh snap if they both have jack as the high card then they tie
AnabelVIII
astounding
AnabelVIII
Beckett has seven of diamonds and the jack of hearts
Ⓓᴀɴ ⓈᴀʀᴛᴏʀɪꙄ
Because the other jack is in Dan’s hand, not in the river/communal cards
Ⓓᴀɴ ⓈᴀʀᴛᴏʀɪꙄ
He wins then!
AnabelVIII
how come?
6LilacMimeLions
you can either go next highest card, or suite precedence
Shard
Next highest card is probably easiest.
AnabelVIII
what is suite precedence
Ⓓᴀɴ ⓈᴀʀᴛᴏʀɪꙄ
He has the seven as his next highest card, which beats Dan’s six
AnabelVIII
ah!
6LilacMimeLions
you pick a ranking for the suites (some games, like bridge, have an official one)
6LilacMimeLions
and then the card with the higher-ranking suite wins a tie
AnabelVIII
...wow beckett i cant believe bluffing actually worked
AnabelVIII
bluffing NEVER works for him
Ⓓᴀɴ ⓈᴀʀᴛᴏʀɪꙄ
Because - I admit we’re hand waving a lot of this so who even knows what’s happening really - the river is a five and then two cards I don’t think we named that are mismatched suits and low numbers that don’t pair with either player’s hands. Dan’s hand is jack and six, Beckett’s is jack and seven, so Beckett wins.
AnabelVIII
i accept this
Ⓓᴀɴ ⓈᴀʀᴛᴏʀɪꙄ
You have now mastered

~RP poker~
AnabelVIII
its so easy
AnabelVIII
yolu just bullshit out the most amusing result
Ⓓᴀɴ ⓈᴀʀᴛᴏʀɪꙄ
you get it
you get it

...Apparently, there's a floating superhero poker game in the Marvel Universe.
AnabelVIII
how many people do you think we could jam into a poker thread
AnabelVIII
also
Ⓓᴀɴ ⓈᴀʀᴛᴏʀɪꙄ
beckett should lose this one but i think I'm starting him off strong because it's His Brand to get cocky over a near thing
AnabelVIII
i could be wrong but those are like, decentish cards?
Ⓓᴀɴ ⓈᴀʀᴛᴏʀɪꙄ
he could chase a straight! (go for a full hand of diamonds)
Ⓓᴀɴ ⓈᴀʀᴛᴏʀɪꙄ
straights are a bad idea to chase because they look cool but if you get anything but the full hand you have a fistful of nothing
Ⓓᴀɴ ⓈᴀʀᴛᴏʀɪꙄ
we could do MANY in a poker thread
AnabelVIII
okay i trust ur poker ways
Ⓓᴀɴ ⓈᴀʀᴛᴏʀɪꙄ
~nevadan~
Ⓓᴀɴ ⓈᴀʀᴛᴏʀɪꙄ
lol i say that then realize I meant chasing a flush
Ⓓᴀɴ ⓈᴀʀᴛᴏʀɪꙄ
not a straight
Ⓓᴀɴ ⓈᴀʀᴛᴏʀɪꙄ
although straight'll fuck you up too for similar reasons - you can have a really strong looking hand that gets turned into absolutely nothing on the last card
AnabelVIII
i had no way of knowing you were wrong
Ⓓᴀɴ ⓈᴀʀᴛᴏʀɪꙄ
no worries, it's all RP funtimes anyway!
Shard
Chasing a straight or a flush is a little easier in draw poker, admittedly. Same problem, though.
Ⓓᴀɴ ⓈᴀʀᴛᴏʀɪꙄ
personally I never bank on getting a straight or flush, I chase pairs all day long
Shard
I would on my little draw poker game. But that's not actual money.
AnabelVIII
okay it took five minutes of staring at a poker hand ranking chart but I think i'm setting beckett up to have his day ruined.
Ⓓᴀɴ ⓈᴀʀᴛᴏʀɪꙄ
ahaha excellent
AnabelVIII
Ⓓᴀɴ ⓈᴀʀᴛᴏʀɪꙄ
okay so this mean beckett has to show his hand and he doesn't win with the hand he currently has, yes?
Ⓓᴀɴ ⓈᴀʀᴛᴏʀɪꙄ
yes, unless Beckett wants to raise the bet
AnabelVIII
hmmm
