The current Champion gets to keep the Poker Trophy until the next game. Players can only use money that they brought with them to the start of the game. Players may not borrow money from other players during the course of the game. Ante and minimum bet are one quarter. Maximum bet is one dollar.
Nobody has to make an opening bet.
If everyone checks, the hand is still played. If there's only 2 people remaining, there are unlimited raises. Checking and then raising someone else's bet is allowed. If you run out of chips, you can continue to play the hand with cash. If players have tying hands, they split the pot.
