Beschreibung
Word Poker takes the well-known framework of poker and transforms it into a compulsive family word game. Instead of normal playing cards, it uses letter cards with each letter having its own score value. The aim is to make the highest-scoring word using any combination of the five cards on the table and the five cards you are holding. There are rounds of betting where you can bet on the strength of your word to win the pot of chips. Quick start rules mean that you don't need any knowledge of poker to get playing.

The rules are for Texas Hold 'Em poker. All the steps are there: the flop, turn, river, etc. Besides using letters to make words, the only rules difference is that players start with a hand of five cards rather than two.
