overlander:  That's a great score.  When I played a lot of Y*htztee years ago, I was always happy to get 300 -- over 1800 in triple is at least as good as averaging over 300 in 3 games (better, since the bonus isn't doubled or tripled!)

error on page ..no play

won't let me play and time is running out

I'd like to play in the upcoming Triple Dice Poker team tournament, but my team appears to be absolutely dead. Can any team out there use a player for the upcoming team tournament?

I wrote in heading of this board: maximum number of points that can be get in Dice poker and Triple dice poker and maximum reached points on Brainking. Does anyone got more points? I was searching just a little bit ;)

Well I just started looking through my past games (so I might find more), but here is a 288 of mine:

Dice Poker (coan.net vs. Dalmatiner)

And another interesting stat - highest combined score of both players: 526 in this game: Dice Poker (danheg vs. coan.net)

I knew I should have looked at more before I posted before:

298: Dice Poker (bouncer vs. coan.net)

556 (combined 2 players): Dice Poker (coan.net vs. oldhamgirl)

For triple:

I don't have anything to beat the single - but my best "combined" game of both players score is 3371: Triple Dice Poker (coan.net vs. Somelaughs2)

coan.net: Nice. I updated heading.

I was looking through my completed games to figure out what my highest score is and I found this game with a 157 point difference between my opponent and me. It makes me wonder what is the lowest score someone has received. (As long as they weren't trying to do badly on purpose of course.)

Dice Poker (janajana vs. nivabef)

what a great game this is
you now have something to think about and its alot more tactical than the others

I assume on Triple Dice 6D, the upper bonus level has changed? (possibly the amount of the bonus too?) I haven't seen any rules yet. Of course, I haven't looked this morning yet, lol.

rod03801: Ahh, I found one of my answers by hovering over the bonus box, and I see that it takes 84 points to get the bonus now. That's good. Is the bonus still 35 though?

rod03801: Unless he changed it, the "rules" should be these:

Rows:

1’s (sum of all 1’s)
2’s (sum of all 2’s)
3’s (sum of all 3’s)
4’s (sum of all 4’s)
5’s (sum of all 5’s)
6’s (sum of all 6’s)

Bonus of 50 points if total in 1 column is 84 or over (4 in each row)

4 of a kind – have 4 of the same dice, sum of ALL dice
5 of a kind – have 5 of the same dice, sum of ALL dice

Full House (2+3) – have 2 of one, plus 3 of another (2-2-5-5-5-x) = 25 points
Full Car (2+2+2) – have 2 of 3 different values (1-1-3-3-6-6) = 40 Points
Full Hotel (3+3) – have 3 of one, plus 3 of another (1-1-1-4-4-4) = 50 points

Large Straight – have 5 dice in order (1-2-3-4-5 or 2-3-4-5-6) = 45 Points
Full Straight – have 6 dice in order (1-2-3-4-5-6) = 60 points

6 of a kind – have all 6 of the same dice – 75 points

Chance – sum of ALL dice

It's time to sign up for Triple Dice Poker *6D* for Brains! !!

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 7 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.

In the 6D variants, I'm missing a box for a 4+2 combination (which IMO, should replace Full House (3+2), as Full House seems to easy with 6 die).

when will this game be released, sounds like fun.

No idea if this is a record, but it is a pretty good score:
452 points (http://brainking.com/en/ArchivedGame?g=3027435)

Especially surprised, since my luck is always... the opposite of this score!

the link on the game of oceans apart against overlander leads to a diofferent game... ,-(

anyway, i just posted a feature request on displaying the high scores of point-orientated games somewhere in the statistics... ;-)

diogenysos: Actually, the game you mention is the same game. Oceans Apart changed her screen name to Adaptable Ali

Triple Dice Poker (overlander vs. picaso)

DP 6D - single game - max 579 points - Dice Poker 6D (balvan99 vs. aaru) - 421 (aaru)

Snoopy:

I'ld like to see te bankroll variant Coan posted ago... looks very addictive and very playable.

i won with a flush, i had ace diamonds and a club, 4 diamonds came onto the table and i won. i always thought that texas holdem is 2 in your hand, 3 on the the table or 1 in your hand and 3 on table, i never played where you can use 4 on the table to make the best hand. am i wrong and confused?

ellieoop: As I understand it, it's the best 5 cards from the 7.

So if the 5 on the table are the best, all players still playing will use those 5 cards and tie for the pot.

(I believe someone mentioned there variants of the game which probable use the rules you mention.)

But best 5 cards out of the 7 - no matter if they are in the hand or on the table is how I understand it.

coan.net: i didn't realize that i posted on this board instead of poker. i have been playing the game here wrong and have lost many pots. i have never played it any way but the way i posted it.

ellieoop: Opps - I did not notice it was on the wrong board either.

coan.net: i'm suprised by this rule and it's definitely not as good a game as the way i've always seen it played. too bad, it's really a great game, but now it's completely different.

ellieoop:You may be thinking of Omaha Hold'em, where all players must use two of the four cards in their hand, along with three of the five upcards.  But in Texas Hold'em, all players may use any five cards from the seven combined cards (two in their hand and five on the board).  That rule is applied in every casino, poker house, and tournament, throughout the world, that I've ever seen, and I've been playing Texas Hold'em for over forty years.

MrWCF: and to follow up on MrWCF - Fencer said he plans to bring Omaha Hold'em to the site also.

.... maybe we should move any future discussion over to the correct board: http://brainking.com/en/Board?bc=161

MrWCF: i play omaha and it is 2 in your hand and 3 on the bd. and that site also plays holdem the same way. i guess all sites have their own rules. i'm looking foward to omaha.

ellieoop: Please read the official rules at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texas_Hold_%27em and you will see that our implementation is correct.

Fencer: you're right, i'm wrong, i was confusing it with omaha, that game is 2 in your hand and 3 on th bd. sorry.

I suspect that the dice in Dice Poker are broken: a couple of times I have observed that the re-rolled dice didn't change.

This is difficult to prove, however. Unfortunately the movelist only displays the numbers after the last roll. So one had to manually copy all re-rolls to do a statistical analysis.

Snoopy: Dice Poker 6D (aaru vs. MadMonkey) -> 457

aaru: nice score

Today I had twice the effect that the server rerolled dice I did not check for reroll. I verified by using the back-button on the browser.
Once I check a single die for reroll, and four got rerolled, the other time I checked two, and three got rerolled.
This makes the whole game pointless.
Anybody else has this effect?

Aganju: I play these games all the time, and several times today even, and NO, I have never had a problem with the wrong dice being rolled.
Could it be a cache issue?

I'm sure if it were a common problem it would be complained about constantly though.

I had issues a long time ago, but I believe it was a browser issue - the browser was caching the images or something & the wrong dice was showing (in all dice games). I think a good clearing of the browser cache & such fixed things for me. I play a lot of dice games, and haven't seen any issues for a long time now.

Yeah I played hundreds and every day too, never had such issues before. But it started today and hit me twice. I'll wait a day or too, and if there is fifty more complaints, it's a server issue. If nobody else comes up with it, well then it's an issue at my end...

I suddenly got the urge to resign my games and did so.

I think we have a new high for both single and combined here, with 309 and 572: Dice Poker (Lukas 16 vs. earldrake1)

earldrake1: LOL - the actual score for the combined game that is shown as the high is 577, not 563, so never mind on the combined.
