Last One To Post Wins!

[June Scarlet]

Unfortunately, it's my win now.

[Rabbit ♠]

No, I need the win. I have a plant. D:

[June Scarlet]

I see your plant and raise you a candy bar.

[Rabbit ♠]

I don't understand Poker terms. D:>

[Kyn]

I didn't even know those were Poker terms.

[Gelquie]

"I see your [x] and raise you [y]" is one. It's basically during a betting phase when you're raising the amount in a bet.

I'm not sure if I'd be good at poker if I tried to play for reals (AKA, not for money), though. I don't trust my face.

[Bacon]

For example:

First player: I bet five dollars.
Second player: I see your five dollars and raise you ten.
Third player: I fold.
Fourth player: I call.

First player's in for five, second is in for fifteen, third is forfeiting this round, and the fourth is not only in for fifteen but also ending the betting phase, meaning the three remaining players have to show their cards.

I think. This is all stuff that I've gleaned from observation of various media so I may have some of that wrong. Never actually played it myself.

Almost. The first player has to match the second player's new amount. So they would need to add 10 to their bet or fold.

Ah.

[Rabbit ♠]

Ah, I understand poker a bit more now. :3

[June Scarlet]

There was this one point in my life where all my cousins were super into playing Texas Hold-Em, which is a variation of poker. So that's where I learned everything I know about poker. Playing for chips for fun with fellow tweens.

I am absolutely positively sure that I have experienced the full poker experience, and that there is absolutely nothing missing in my wealth of knowledge about this subject.

[Gelquie]

I used to play various types of poker when I was little. Really just one of the many games I played. All with tokens and not real money, though.

[Bacon]

I've never actually gambled with real money, although I have been to Las Vegas once.

[Gelquie]

I've been to Vegas, but it was a long time ago. And I was underage, so no gambling for me. They wouldn't even let me watch.
But eh, I'm not too torn up about that. I got to see the other sights of Vegas. It's a very loud, bright, and polluted place, though. There was nowhere you could go where you were free of secondhand smoke. So I'm not all that anxious to visit again.

[Bacon]

I was underage too! I rode a rollercoaster, and a diagonal-moving elevator in the pyramid-shaped place, and went to an M&M store and that's all I really remember because my long-term memory kinda sucks.
