Guts
Three cards each, then everyone says in or out at once. Lose a showdown and you match the pot. 2–8 players.
How to play Guts
- 1Play chips only, never real money. Everyone starts with 1000 chips. When the pot is empty, everyone antes 10 chips to start a new one. Each deal, everyone gets three cards.
- 2Look at your cards and decide: in or out. Everyone decides in secret, and all the calls are revealed together.
- 3If only one player goes in, they take the pot without showing. If several go in, they show their hands and the best takes the pot. Each of the others who went in must then match the pot they lost (up to 200 chips), and that becomes the next pot.
- 4If nobody goes in, the pot stays where it is and the cards are dealt again.
- 5Best hands first: a straight flush, three of a kind, a straight, a flush, a pair, then high card. Aces are high, but A-2-3 is the lowest straight. Equal hands compare their highest cards, and true ties share the pot.
- 6The game lasts 25 deals. On the last one, losers don’t pay in (and if nobody goes in, the pot is shared). The most chips at the end wins. A player who can’t pay the ante, or has no chips left, is out.
