Description
This is a variation of the card game of Poker. Players move around the gameboard and drop off or pick up cards which potentially make their 5 card hand better. When they feel lucky they can on their turn wager points and challenge the "8 ball" by shaking it up and turning it over to reveal a randomly selected dealer hand. Game ends when either a player or the bank goes broke.
