Read the full game description
Deal Texas hold’em hands, reveal community cards, and work together to place numbered chips that predict the relative strength of every hand. You cannot discuss your cards, so each chip claim becomes a carefully judged signal. Correctly rank the whole gang three times before making three mistakes to complete the heist, then add challenge and specialist cards when the crew is ready.
