Texas Ask'em
« on: October 18, 2012, 16:00:56 PM »
I stepped into this article today, and wondered if this would not be fun to have at an apat live event?
perhaps not at a to high buy in, but still sounds like it could be fun


Texas Ask"Em Poker is just like the Texas Hold"Em Poker already loved by millions, but with a trivia twist. Players compete for the best starting hand by answering a multiple choice question. The cards in Texas Ask"Em are dealt face-down in pairs, but to the middle of the table, not yet to each player. All players are then shown a multiple choice question and have to answer it as quickly as possible. Players that answer correctly come first and are rewarded based on their answer times, players that answered incorrectly are randomly sorted last. The player ranked first is given the best hand dealt, all the way down to the player ranked last receiving the worst hand. Once all cards are dealt, regular Texas Hold"Em Poker follows. Only after the poker hand is complete, the answer to the question is revealed along with the players' answers which can lead to a few laughs. But remember when it comes to poker it is not just down to the hand you are dealt, even the person that had the answer wrong can still win the poker hand - you still need to know when to fold"em!


had to shorten article as it seems people think i thought it is fun to have an iphone game at live event, I only meant the style texas ask"em could be fun at a live event, specially after a few drinks
