INTRODUCTION-

Poker is the most popular type of card game in the world. Poker itself is not a game, but it includes a wide range of different games which generally use the standard 5 card poker hand ranking.

Most poker games involve a lot of poker strategy. In many aspects, poker is more about human behavior than about cards. It truly is the greatest mind game of the century. And of course, the rewards that one can earn from playing poker are certainly appealing to a lot of people.

PROBLEM STATEMENT-
Acey Deucey is a lucrative card based multiplayer game based on the rules of Texas Holdem poker, BUT with some twirls.

EVENT DESCRIPTION-
Typically, Acey Deucey will be made up of 6 or 10 players per table, however it is possible to play it with any number of players, up to 10 per table. To start a new hand, a person is flagged as being “the dealer” (determined randomly). The player immediately to the left of the dealer puts up a forced bet amount, called the “small blind” and the player to the left of the small blind posts the “big blind”. The small blind is always half the value of the big blind, and blind amounts are predetermined. The minimum bet you can make is always based on the value of the big blind. The rest of the players do not put up any money in the pot yet. Every time a new hand begins, the dealer button moves up to the next person at the table, which also means that the blinds move from player to player. Each player will eventually act as the big blind, small blind and dealer.Each player is dealt two cards face down, starting with the player in the small blind position. Obviously, you get to see your own two cards. The player in the dealer position will get dealt cards last. The first betting round then begins. The player to the left of the big blind will be the first to act. He can call the bet by putting in the amount of the current bet, which is currently the value of the big blind. He can also raise by putting at least twice the amount of the current bet. The last option is to fold and withdraw from the hand. The betting goes around the table in clockwise order, from player to player, until it reaches the player who posted the big blind, who did not yet act. If no one raised, the player can “check, which essentially means calling the current bet which he had already covered by posting his Big Blind amount. The player also has the option to raise. If a raise had already occurred, the player in the big blind could not “check” and would have to either call, raise or fold. The betting round continues around the table until the current bet is called by all remaining players in the hand, or until everyone but the raiser folds. In this case, this person would win the pot and wouldn’t even have to show their cards. The hand would be over and a new one would start. Assuming the bet was called, we proceed to the next step. The Flop, turn and river After the first betting round is completed, three cards are dealt and turned face up in the middle of the table. This is known as the “Flop.” These are community cards used by all the players. Another betting round begins with the first active player to the left of the dealer button. Since there are no bets currently, every player will have the option to “check” (which is the equivalent of betting $0 in this case), until an active player decides to bet an amount. When the betting round after the flop is completed, the dealer turns a fourth card face up in the middle of the table. This is called the “Turn.” The third betting round now begins, and works just like the last betting round. At this point, the dealer will turn a fifth and final card face up. This is called the “river,” and the final betting round can now begin. As indicated above, there are a total of four betting rounds. Betting takes place after the hole cards are dealt, after the flop, after the turn, and after the river

RULES AND REGULATIONS-
1.Acey Deucey works almost exactly as Texas Holdem, except that the maximum bet is caped.
2.The cap is based on the total value of the pot, after you would call the bet. So for example in a $10/$20 pot limit game, after the blinds are posted, the first player can fold, call the $20, or raise to $50 which represents the total pot value had they called the bet. (small blind + big blind + call = 10+20+20).
3.The next player can now fold, call $50, or raise up to $130 (small blind + big blind + the raise + call = 10+20+50+50). Now the next player can do the same and raise up to $340! (small blind + big blind + the raise + reraise +call = 10+20+50+130+130).
4.You can go “all in” when your total chip count does not exceed the maximum raise allowed. So in the last example where $340 was the maximum raise, someone with $300 could go “all in”.
5.Remember that you don’t necessarily have to raise up to the maximum amount if you don’t want to, but you must raise by as much as the current bet at least.
6.While these amounts may be tricky to track, the software in poker rooms will let you know what the maximum betting amount is so you don’t have to worry about all the calculations.
