In this game, the players start by making an ante bet. The dealer and each of the players then get 3 cards, and the players must decide whether to make a play bet or fold. Finally, the dealer reveals their cards for a showdown and whoever has the best hand wins. Like with 5-card draw, you can choose to vary the rules if you're playing at home. For instance, jokers can be wild, meaning they can be used in represent any card value.

Article: You'll need to show what you're capable of doing before you're hired to write anything. This means that you'll need a portfolio of your work. A portfolio should showcase your best pieces of work, and will usually be between 3-5 songs. If the songs have already been recorded, you should still include a copy of the written lyrics. You'll want to make sure that you can easily share your portfolio online by putting all of your song lyrics into a single PDF or Word document. You can use anything that you've written in your portfolio. It doesn't need to contain songs that you've already created for clients. Just be honest about your work experience when discussing your songs. Consider making a personal website to showcase your work to potential employers. Search around job sites and message boards to try and find any potential openings for a lyricist. Since most songwriting jobs can be completed at home, you won't need to worry about applying for specific jobs in your area. The most commonly-used job sites for freelance writers are FlexJobs, SolidGigs, Upwork, and Fiverr. Most freelance websites require you to create an online profile and upload a portfolio. Always upload a friendly picture of yourself to make you seem more personable! When looking at prospective jobs, consider whether you have the necessary time and level of expertise that the job is calling for. Pay close attention to each job posting's goal or required outcome, since that will tell you what you need to create. Once you apply, prospective employers will reach out and either hire you to work remotely or request additional information. When looking for opportunities, try searching by using keywords that relate to your specialty. For example, if you focus entirely on writing folk ballads, try entering "folk" or "love songs" in your searches. Working from home can be quite enjoyable, but make sure that you don't get distracted and take too long to complete your work! Payment is usually received through the platform that you got hired on, and most websites will either ask you to link a bank account or PayPal account to send you your earnings. Building strong relationships with your peers is a good way to get a head start on jobs for lyricists. Reach out to other songwriters on social media and connect with local writers by inviting them out for coffee or lunch. Many job opportunities can be found before they're even available to the public if a colleague tells you about it well in advance. Songwriting is a difficult field to get into if you don't have any experience. Don't get too down on yourself if you're struggling to find work immediately. Every lyricist started somewhere! If you're being turned down frequently, consider looking for opportunities that explicitly don't require experience in your field. Consider revising your portfolio if you aren't getting a lot of offers. It may be that you're choosing to show work that doesn't demonstrate your skills!
