DUPLICATE SHOWDOWN
1. This game is played with two separate decks of cards.
2. Poker hands do not apply. It is nothing more than a game of
chance; luck alone is the determining factor.
3. Before any cards are dealt, each player antes five units.
4. The dealer passes each player five cards, one at a time, from
one deck.
5. That deck is now put aside.
6. The game continues with the dealer turning up one card from
the alternate deck.
7. The player having the duplicate card discards it and puts one
unit in the pot.
8. The dealer turns up the next card and the player having that
card discards it and puts one unit in the pot.
9. Play continues in this manner. However, the second card a
player discards requires two units going into the pot. The third
drop three units, the fourth drop four units.
10. The game ends when a player drops their last card. That player
wins the whole pot.
NOTE: This game produces only one winner; there can never be a tie.
Bonus Option: If a player keeps all five cards, he gets five units from all
other players. This is not very likely to occur, but it is possible. If this
happens with more than one player, they also get the bonus.
