Abstract

This invention introduces quantitative scoring to poker. It is new to poker but in many sports, it is almost all that counts. So welcome scoring to poker because you may argue until blue in the face, but at the end, only the cards speak. One may say 'The cards keep the score'. Poker is a gruelling game. This invention will relieve much of the stress since players can have: Hands made with scores so far, as the game progresses, and at the end. It will be like going from a slide rule to a calculator. And should allow older players and beginners to keep up better with the twenty-somethings.
