Game by Eliott Adkins.
- Each Player takes a Deck of Cards.
 - Each duel:
    
- Both players start by flipping a card.
 - Each player forms the best poker-hand they can from their flipped cards.
 - The player with the worse poker hand chooses one of the following:
        
- Flip over another card. The duel then returns to step 2.
 - Concede. The duel ends and the other player scores a point.
 
 
 - First player to 6 points wins.
 - Discard your cards between each duel. Never reshuffle. If your deck is out of cards, you have likely lost.
 
Three Player Variant
- Play to 4 points.
 - Go around the table, taking turns flipping or conceding.
    
- Player with the best hand is the “poobah” and holds (skip them; they neither flip nor concede).
 - (This method is easier than determining the worst hand after each flip.)
 
 - A player wins a point when both others have conceded.
