Grid Poker

In Grid Poker, players draft cards from a series of 3x3 grids to build 3 poker hands. The first player chooses a row or column and takes those three cards. Then, the second player takes a remaining row or column, which may be only two cards. Discard the 3 or 4 remaining cards, or, with three players, give them all to the third player. Lay out a new grid and rotate which player picks first. Draft 6 grids in total (all 54 cards; including Jokers, which are wild, but can only be used in straights and flushes). After drafting, each player builds 3 poker hands of 5 cards each. Scoring Reveal and sort each hand based on its poker ranking. Compare each player's 1st, 2nd, and 3rd hand, with the best hand in each category scoring a point. —description from the designer
