Playing Poker is thrilling, exciting, sometimes nerve-wracking, and a lot of fun. All In encapsulates these great vibes in a simple yet deceiving fast paced Flip&Write game, that can be played with a printable sheet and a classic deck of Poker cards. Each round, simultaneously, all players will be building their Poker Hands by writing down numbers on their player sheets based on a selection of 2 revealed Poker cards: they can choose one of the two revealed cards or a combination between them: for example the number from one card and the suit from the other. The card must always be written adjacent to another card, creating compelling and satisfying decisions each turn. When players complete a Hand they obtain Poker Chips that can later be used to change the Value and the Suit of the revealed cards, giving them lots of opportunities and reducing the luck of the draw. Each game you can choose between several different layouts, with exciting rule changes, that will offer new opportunities and strategies. At the end of the game Players will be getting points based on which type of Hands they achieved, like a Four of a Kind or a Straight Flush, and compare the strongest Hands against their opponents. Are you ready for a showdown? —description from the publisher
