krybulon: I think the dice Poker basic game should be hust basic. That's also why there is no bonus in that game. So only in the triple.

joshi tm:
doubling cube should keep Dice Poker simple ...
but without a bonus this game is missing very important feature. there is a book about Yahtzee strategy called "Advantage Yahtzee" ... check it out on Amazon.com. I have this book, it's very interesting for Yahtzee players. Bonus makes this game very exciting and without it we miss
huge portion of the flavor. Doubling cube would substitute this lacking excitement.
Tripple Yathzee is a different spiece. It's a very complicated game and there is no need for any doubling cube at all.

Assunto: Hollywood style of Dice Poker
have you ever played card game GIN ? and did you try to score using Hollywood scoring tables ?
Here is how it works: there are 3 games played and the same time ... each player has three columns, first one for the first game, second for the second, and so on, lol.
For our purpose we substitute card's hand or deal with Poker Dice roll. The idea is the same
for both types of games.
Results for the first game (here, our roll) is posted into the first column, just like in regular Dice Poker game. Second roll is posted into the first and the second column and of course, the player decides where to score in these coulmns (he may choose to score in different spots, for example, in the first coulmn he ma score 66655 as a 3 of a kind while in the second column he may choose to score Full House).
Third roll is recorded in the first, second and third coulmn. From now on, every roll is recorded into 3 coulmns ...
Whoever wins 2 out of 3 games is the winner of the whole match.
Very interesting variant of recording scores and winnings.
Regards,
Andy.

Assunto: Slowly
but surely I am adjusting to our Dice Poker without a bonus. Tactics changes dramatically.
There is no more conflict between upper and lower portion of a scoring table. 55564, for example, is always recorded as 3 of a kind now.
There is no more fight to get at least 3 of each kind ... rather than this, upper portion is used as a trash can, especially spaces for 1's, 2's and even 3's ... a race to fill in a lower portion is on ... is it better or worse ? well, it's different and it took me a while to accept the fact that I will never have a bonus points
in our Dice Poker.
Regards,
Andy.

Assunto: Some suggestions...

Two options to help me stop tallying my opponents score as my own (am I alone on this one?)


1) Highlight my side when I am viewing the game (yes, I know the table lines are bold but apparently this isn't enough.)


2) Have my side always appear on the same side of the board.  This is done for Backgammon no?


I also heartily agree with krybulon: a bonus in dice poker would make this game much more interesting...

since bonus is not available whay not use doubling cube ... common guys, let's introduce doubling cube ... I've already seen so many fine situations that screamed for doubling cube action ...

Modificado por rod03801 (12. Fevereiro 2007, 03:43:35)


The Dice Poker for Brains #1 started tonight.

So, now it's time to sign up for Triple Dice Poker For Brains #1 !!

Poker should involve gambling shouldn't it!? So, put up 50 brains and take a chance.

It will be 2 sections of 5 people each. Each player will have 2 games against the players of his/her section. The winners of each section will go to Round 2.

First place will receive 300 brains, and 2nd place will receive their 50 brains back.

Brains can be purchased on the "Brains" page. It's only 6 Euro for 150 Brains! Win enough, and you could buy a membership with Brains, instead of cash!

2 days per move, fixed weekends only. (No vacation days)

It will start as soon as 10 people have signed up.

alanback: Yeah, that is the only flaw, in my opinion. To me, a major part of the game is missing without the bonus. That's why I'll probably mostly play the Triple version.

Hey, all.. does the Triple Yahtzee game that you can buy have different colors on the dots of the dice? Or was that yet another variation? For some reason I thought I remembered green, black, and red dots...

I'm wondering if you already have a Yahtzee & then you get another 1, & let's say, you have a Large Straight still open, can you put that roll (Yahtzee) in it & still get credited for the 40 pts for the Large like in the regular version of Yahtzee? Thanks!

MagicDragon: A second 5 of a kind can go in 3 of a kind, 4 of a kind spot or up top if the slot is open ( ie you get 5- 5's and u need 5's put it in there)

MagicDragon: a second yahtzee cant be put anywhere else than in its regular places .. 3-of-a-kind, 4-of-a-kind, chance, and any of the top half (where it will only give points on 1 of them (the one with which the yahtzee is made :))

we dont have the rule that you describe .. we gain an extra 100 points for an extra yahtzee and then have to enter the extra yahtzee somewhere in the normal way as i described above ..

on brainking we dont get the 100 bonus points though :)

(btw you cant use a yahtzee for a fullhouse)

Assunto: Fencer, do something, please
I think people won't stop complaining about crippled Dice Poker ... game of Yahtze is so popular that stepping down to Dice Poker is felt like punishment ... but for what ? I've seen many yahtzee-like games having built in bonus.
The only difference was the name of the game.
Fencer, I know you said NO to any changes, but
I am sure this particular case of game asks for
some kind of compromise ... please think it over again.

Assunto: Triple Dice Poker variant?
Modificado por rednaz23 (28. Março 2007, 22:11:00)
I am curious to see if we could have a variant where at any point during the game you go up by 100 points you automatically lose. I think it would be cool to see, because it would cause some strategy to be added to a game that is mostly luck.

The goal if neither player was ever up by 100, would still be to win the game by having more points. I think it sounds very interesting!

Any thoughts?

Assunto: Re: Triple Dice Poker variant?
rednaz23: I think it would be very simple to put 0 for every catergory except for Chance - so I would think most of the time it would not be to much fun.

Some variants I would like to see:

1. 6 dice version - with some different categories and such (both single & triple)

2. Bankroll Dice Poker - You start the game out with a bankroll of 26 rolls (78 for triple version). So you can use more then the normal 2 extra rolls for each round if you need to - but will run out by the end of the game - or use 0 or 1 roll to have extra rolls later on in the game. So if you REALLY need 5 in a row to catch up and have plenty of rolls left, you can roll extra times to try to get it. (I'm debating if it should be 26/78 - or add an extra 5 rolls to each to make the starting bankroll of 31/83 rolls for each game.)

BIG BAD WOLF: That is what I mean! You need to allow yourself the chance to win, without allowing your opponent the chance to force you into being up by a 100 point margin... Does that make sense? There is a lot more strategy in this version than the current TPD... It would make for a very interesting game, I bet you would actually like it because it would require tons more stategy than the current game...

Anyone interested in trying an unrated TPD game with those rules? (The one additional rule is you lose if up by 100 or more points at any point in the game)

Assunto: Re: Triple Dice Poker variant?
BIG BAD WOLF: Yes! Bankroll Dice Poker will extend the game's strategy even further. Also how about another DP variant that adds the bonus rule to the simple (13 turn) chart? The game's strategy will change also cause 35 points is pretty much in normal DP and you can't just put a bad result on the threes anymore, e.g.
