In Sacramento, players draft cards from a common pool to create the strongest poker hand.
Played over multiple rounds. Each round a set number of cards are placed face up to a common pool. Each turn, a player chooses one of the cards from the pool and adds it to their hand of cards. This occurs until everyone has seven cards in hand. From those seven cards, each player builds their best five-card poker hand and is awarded points based on the strength of that poker hand. Whoever has the most points after all the rounds are played out, wins.
Sacramento is in the same family as Bonanza and Nugget.
Played with a standard deck of cards, published in Reiner Knizia's book Blazing Aces!: A Fistful of Family Card Games.
