Abstract

A poker related board game for 2-4 players, which is played on a game board using markers, blockers, a die, and a deck of cards. The game board is composed of a starting area for each player, unmarked spaces, and 52 “marked spaces” that each contain a unique value from a standard deck of cards. The players take turns rolling a die and moving markers from their starting area to a desired marked space, claiming that space as a card in their hand. Once four marked spaces are claimed, they combine with a fifth card dealt from the deck to create a five card poker hand, the strength of which determines the winner. Depending on the embodiment of the game, players also use blockers to block opponents from claiming marked spaces. The game can be played using the actual materials or on a computer.
