Mini 1804: Poker Mafia (Game Over)

[Something_Smart]

Do you guys think it's worth it to, once we decide on who to lynch, force the scummy players on the wagon to get off and replace them with towny players in order to keep the most possible money in the hands of the town?

Given how hard it tends to be to get players to agree to a lynch in the first place in general site meta do you think it is going to be viable to actually try to arrange wagons in this manner?

I don't know that's why I was asking

We tried something like that in this game, where I switched off a wagon in order to be the hammer on a claimed supersaint, but even that was screwed up by Anti hammering before I could. I don't know if we could accomplish this, but it seems like it would be helpful if we could.

Pedit: infinity are you copying ranger? if so why are you at the bottom?

[Alchemist21]

Oi oi, Infinity. We know you're a he, no need to go full MAN and show the entire world how ballsy you are

@Mod: Does raising reset everyone's options? Infinity raised on my raise, am I forced to stay at 50, or am I forced to reraise? Whatever happens?

You have to at least call by putting in another $50, but you could also raise or fold.

[BlueBloodedToffee]

Wow, so on a scale of 1-10, how good are y'all at poker?

Secondly, it may be in towns interests to play as many hands as possible to build up money. If you're town and you're bad at poker you should probably say so.

Did someone say wagon?

[Something_Smart]

Hmm.
If 1 is terrible then probably around a 4. Although this poker game has less skill than most.

[Alchemist21]

The current pot is $230.

mod, might be helpful to also say "The current amount to call is $100."

This is a good idea. It will be included starting with the next vote count.

7 or 8, but this is an unusual format, especially since you can take someone's bankroll by lynching them.

[lane0168]

Yee haw! I've been hankering fer a good old-fashioned game o' cards.

Well I'll be horn-swaggled, these here cards suck.

Fold

VOTE: Lane

He's got to be scum sometimes.

Lol still no. I'm afraid to play scum when you're in the game so I'm just going to be town this game

[BlueBloodedToffee]

I could very easily get sidetracked on poker so I'm trying not to talk about it.

Alch, is it possible to change poker variants each DP or no? Also, I expected this to be like a traditional no limit hold em format so I'm a little bit sad.

No, the poker hands will always work as described in the ruleset. Maybe next game will have no limit hold 'em, I'm also partial to that variant.

[Persivul]

Lol still no. I'm afraid to play scum when you're in the game so I'm just going to be town this game

If you win the first pot we're going to lynch you anyway, just to take your $.

[Alchemist21]

I been runnin' around like a chicken with his head cut off so much I done gone and broke character.

Yeah I figured it would be holdem or draw.

Consarn it.

Looks like someone made this hand all or nothing. Welp,

Call

Need to voice my disapproval in at least one way: VOTE: Lane

I won't win lol

[Persivul]

Cool now if everyone comes in and calls or folds this hand resolves and we get a new deal.

[Persivul]

I won't win lol

So why did you bet all your money?

Could be scum dumping money to each other so they can buy out one of the bigger PRs early.

mod, did scum have pre-game talk? Do they have day talk?

[Persivul]

And consider my vote real now, i.e. not RVS.

[lane0168]

Because I didn't think anybody would call. I was wrong

[Something_Smart]

Eww. Earning money is not necessarily part of your wincon. Although I think that 42 is an awfully big leap to take.

I'm sure scum had pre-game talk, I've never seen a game where they didn't.

Scum had pre-game talk during the confirmation stage. They don't have Day talk. I'll also say that I explicitly did not allow scum to claim their cards to each other beyond general descriptions such as "good/bad."

[MagnaofIllusion]

Fold

Lol no draw?! And no claiming cards?!

Raise $500

So Lane … why did you think concentrating money in someone’s hands (which this bet was more likely than not to accomplish) is a Pro Town move?

Lol still no. I'm afraid to play scum when you're in the game so I'm just going to be town this game

That game was an open setup with significant role related reasons to orchestrate. And just because players get money from a lynch doesn’t mean they aren’t going to be held accountable for their reasons for being on the wagon.

Translation – hopping / hammering a wagon just to accumulate cash is scummy and will be treated as such.

Wow, so on a scale of 1-10, how good are y'all at poker?

I have realistic expectations – 6. Good enough to do well on average in home games.

[Alchemist21]

I reckon it's time...
