About the Game

Summary: Place 25 cards sequentially in a 5-by-5 grid with an object to score the highest Poker combinations in each row and column.

Equipment:

a shuffled standard (French) 52-card deck a pen and Poker Squares grid for each player

Rules: Each turn, a card is drawn from the deck and announced. Each player must then privately write the card rank and suit (e.g. “10C” for 10 of Clubs, “AH” for Ace of Hearts) in any empty cell of their 5-by-5 grid. Once written in the grid, cards may not be moved. After all players have written the card, the next turn begins. When player grids are full after 25 cards, grids are scored.

Scoring: The 5-card hand of each grid row and column is scored according to a point system.
