Rickster8 Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 (edited) So we've been trying to get a Straight Flush vs Blockhead and it's proven to be pretty difficult so I figured I'd throw up a new contest about it... I had a few near misses lastnight.... See below.... I'm always 1 card away..... 🤬 @Crash7 EDIT: To make it more interesting I will send a $25.00 Visa Gift Card to the first person who posts a Straight Flush vs Blockhead. Yes I will play too... 🤣 EDIT 2: Crash7 is adding $25.00 as well so now the purse is $50.00.... 😲 Edited August 9 by Rickster8 Wording 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll put $25 into the pot also. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rickster8 Posted August 9 Author Share Posted August 9 I know this isn't a Straight Flush, but look at what Blockhead just did to me... He got a 4th Jack on the final card to dust my FOUR 3's!!!! 🥺 TWO FOUR OF A KINDS IN THE SAME HAND!!!!?!?!?!?!?!?!? ARE YOU FRIGGIN' KIDDING ME????? 😲😲😲😲 @Crash7 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rickster8 Posted August 9 Author Share Posted August 9 Also it doesn’t count if Blockhead gets the Straight Flush. It has to be the player NOT the computer. Posting that is fine, but the prizes go to the player who gets a Straight Flush or Royal Flush too obviously…. 😜👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crash7 Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 Why would we celebrate if Blockhead gets the straight flash? I'd beat his ass! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeddyBear89 Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 Over the years I have wondered if Blockhead would reveal a totally unique facial expression if either he or a player managed to pull a royal flush. An utterly rare and unicorn type of occurrence deserves some type of Easter Egg reaction I would hope. This is very cool - Rooting for someone to pull it off! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crash7 Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 Best part about using Nintellivision is I can save the game right before he shuffles the cards. And then if I get it I can just hit restore and record it so people can see it happen as it did for me instead of just a screenshot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Years ago, my wife and I and old friends were playing TABOO and the BUZZ word was WAFFLE HOUSE only none of us could remember it. We kept saying PANCAKE house and my buddy was getting so pissed. He would say it's definitely NOT Pancake house and with time running out I panicked and said PANCAKE house once again with my final guess... LOL, none of us could remember WAFFLE HOUSE.... HHAHAHAHHHAHAAHHAHA 🤣 So whenever I drive past one or see / hear the name I immediately think of that damn game we played lol Edited August 10 by Rickster8 Correction 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could imagine your friend getting pissed at all of you. 😆 Anyway, good luck with the game. I hope Blockhead gets royally flushed by one of you! (Now, that sounds dirtier than I expected.... LOL) dZ. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+DZ-Jay Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 I'm tempted to sweeten the pot to entice more people to participate, but I'm afraid that if the stakes get too high in cash, it may invite cheaters. So, I'll think of something besides cash. Just know that I'm hereby offering an additional prize to the winner. (And ... No, Blockhead, you are disqualified!) -dZ. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IntellivisionDude Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 I've been trying the last couple days with no luck. Got within 1 card a few times. Won't be able to play anymore until this evening. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IntellivisionDude Posted August 11 Share Posted August 11 I'm starting to wonder if the game is programmed to be completely random. So many times i'm just 1 card away. At least twice during 5 card draw i've been dealt 4 out of 5 cards i need right off the bat. And twice when i discard it give me the right number card but wrong suit to give me a regular straight. That seems too coincidental to be completely random. I was also 1 card away from a Royal Flush once. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
