**a. How to Play Poker Face**
**-------------------------**
There are many variations of the card game of
poker, Poker Face is a 5 card draw version
of the popular game. It is played with a standard
52 card deck.
Each hand starts with the player being given
the option to 'Pass' or 'Throw' away selected
cards. To 'Pass' simply click on the 'Pass'
button. Otherwise, select cards you wish to
discard by clicking on the cards and then
clicking on the 'Throw' button. If you decide
to keep a selected card, click on the card
a second time, before clicking on the 'Throw'
button. As with traditional poker, the
discarded cards are replaced by new cards
dealt from the deck.
After the player passes or throws away
discarded cards, the dealer then chooses to
hold on to its current hand, or discard
selected cards.
The winner of the hand is the one with the
highest poker hand. Hand order - high card,
one pair, two pair, three of a kind, straight,
flush, full house, four of a kind, straight
flush, royal flush.
A straight is five cards of any suite in
numeric order. A flush is five cards of the
the same suite in any numeric order. A full
house is two cards of the same rank plus
three additional cards of the same rank.
A player plays against the house dealer until,
either the player or the dealer runs out of
money. The dealer starts with $10,000 of
available cash, while the player starts with
$25,000 to bet. A bet can be made in increments
of $25 up to $250. To increase the bet amount,
click on the plus sign in front of the dollar
amount. To decrease the bet amount, click on
the minus sign in front of the dollar amount.
