Rock Paper Scissors Poker

Rock Paper Scissors Poker

From the gambling manga "Kakegurui" (Chapter 64), RPS Poker merges two widely known games that uses a deck of 63 cards consisting of 21 Rock, Paper, and Scissors cards respectively.

All card designs are from the manga and were roughly reproduced by me for the purposes of this workshop item.


Shuffle the deck of RPS Poker cards. Then deal 5 cards to each player by right-clicking the deck of RPS Poker cards and clicking on Deal in the context menu. This forms each players starting hand. The remaining cards in the deck form the draw pile.


Play begins with a discard round where each player discards up to 5 cards from their hand and draws cards back into their hand equal to the amount they discarded.

Afterwards, each player plays one card on the table facedown called the "head" card. Once the head card from each player has been played, a betting round begins following poker rules. Each player bets, calls, or raises with their chips.

When all betting has been resolved, each player flips their head card. The winner is decided based on Rock Paper Scissors rules (Rock beats Scissors, Scissors beats Paper, Paper beats Rock). However, in the case of a tie, the winner is the player who has more cards that match their head card. For example, if each player played a Rock while Player #1 had 1 additional Rock in their hand (One Pair) and Player #2 had 3 additional Rocks in their hand (Four of a Kind), Player #2 would be victorious.

In the case that there is still a tie, the pot of chips is split between each player.

The game continues for 5 turns or until one player has all the chips. The overall winner is the player with the most chips by the end of the game. The discard pile only gets reshuffled when no draw cards remain in the draw pile.


Blinds:

It is optional to play with blinds. Blinds are required amounts of chips each player must play at the start of the betting round. Each turn, blinds will increase. For example, players may play with blinds of 10, 20, 40, 80, and 160 chips for blinds for each turn respectively.

This is not scripted.

I am open to variations and other changes to make this game different than the one from the Kakegurui manga. Post any ideas in the discussions area.

Any bugs or problems with the game should be reported in the discussions area.
