How to play

Five cards each, and the lowest hand wins: aces are low, straights and flushes count for nothing, and 5-4-3-2-A is the best hand. Above the table you pick how many computers sit down, one to three, and how many hands the match runs, 6, 12 or 20; the table remembers the computers you picked and choosing a length starts the match again. The chips are play chips: nothing is bought, won or kept, and every seat starts on 500.

Before the draw a bet is 10, after it 20. Fold, Check, Call, Bet and Raise appear only when the rules offer them, and when one is missing the table says why. At the draw tap the cards you want to throw away and press Draw, or tap none and stand pat. A seat that cannot cover a bet goes all in for what it has and the others bet on into a side pot.

Press Ready for the next hand when a hand ends; the computers are always ready. You can pause the computers and step through a hand, and New match deals again. When you would rather have people in the other seats, the table at play with friends seats two to six of you on one link each.
