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

Bing-O-Draw
Bing-O-Draw This game is played the same as Criss Cross (page 146) except that nine cards are placed in the center of the table in the shape of a square. These act as community cards.
Nine Community Cards
Nine Community Cards The four corner cards of the square are dealt face up and the remaining five cards face down. This is followed by a three-raise maximum betting interval. Thereafter the remaining five cards are faced up one at a time, with the center card reserved for the last turn. This last card is wild, and so is any other card of the same rank, which includes the cards in the player's hand or the cards laid out on the table. The player then proceeds by rolling and betting as in Criss Cross. A low or high hand is made by using a set of three cards from the square on the table (running horizontally, vertically or diagonally) with the five dealt cards.
