Tournament Strategies
After receiving pocket cards, you are immediately faced with a choice: play your cards and either raise or call the blinds, or fold.

52. Knock Poker—Deuces Wild The rules that apply to Knock Poker apply to Knock Poker—Deuces Wild, with the following exception. A deuce may be counted as any card a player desires to call it. It may even be counted as a duplicate of a card already held by a player. Bonus awards: Winning player holding five of a kind, a straight flush or a royal flush receives a bonus award of four chips. There are no bonus awards for four of a kind.
53. Brag
53. Brag Great Britain's three-card representative of the Poker family. The rules of Draw Poker apply except as noted: 1. There are three wild cards: ace of diamonds, jack of clubs and nine of diamonds, ranking in that order and called "braggers." 2. The dealer antes an agreed amount into the pot (dealer's edge) and this ante is considered as an opening blind bet. 3. The dealer deals three cards face down to each player. This is followed by a betting round as in Draw Poker. Then each player in turn, beginning with the leader, may call the dealer's blind bet, raise or drop out. If all players drop out, the dealer then retrieves his blind bet and the deal rotates to the player on his left.
