Maria_McKinley's card game that she came up with on her own. A version of blackjack that pits players against eachother instead of against the house. All that with some added poker betting antics to keep everyone on their toes. The perfect game for a group of switches that want some fun with eachother. Prey-onlys are still free to apply, but they'll find that they'll meet the insides of a gut sooner than later with this game either way~
THE RULES
The game itself plays mostly like common blackjack. Some people might already kow the rules but it's better to have everyone on the same page with those rules:
The basic goal of the game is to get the total of the cards in your hand to be as closest to 21 as possible, but never going over. A total of 22 or more means an immediate loss. What is more of note however, is that all figure cards (Jack, Queen and King) are also worth 10, and an ace can either be 1 or 11 depending on what is more convenient for the player.
Each player will initially be dealt two cards in a private whisper with d13s (with 11, 12 and 13 representing the figures). Afterwards, players one by one will be asked what they want to do following that hand. They can either get a "hit" where a new card is dealth to them, although this time it will be done publicly. They can get as many hits as they want until they're satisfied with their hand, where they will now "stand".
To this is added the betting and bluffing strategy of well known poker.
Each player will start with 50$. At the beginning of each round, every player must make an inital bet of 2$ to start the pot and ensure some pace to the game. After that, the initial two private cards are dealth. Then, begins a first round of betting. If someone is confident with their initial hand, they can add any ammount of money to the pot. Following players have 3 options, either fold and forfeit for this current, call the bet and add the same ammount of money to the pot, or raise the bet by adding even more money to the pot, which others will now have to match. This goes around every player until everyone has added the same total of money to the pot or have folded. After this betting period, players will one by one do their hits and stands, and when everyone is standing, another period for betting will go. Once that is over, the full hands are revealed, and the player with the highest hand under 22 wins the pot. In case of more than one player with the same highest hand, the pot is splitted equally, rounded up.
Do note you are still allowed to bet even if you went over 21, but then your only chance of winning is to convince everyone else to fold.
In the rare case where all the players that are still in play are over 21, every player receives back what they betted, even if they folded at one point.
A natural blackjack (10 or a figure with an ace valued as 11 on the initial two cards) plays a bit differently where it will win over a total of 21 achieved differently and will also receive a free 5$ upon reveal, courtesy of the house.
Now comes the part everyone is here for, the vore.
it plays quite simple here. Once a player has no more money after they lost a round, they are eliminated from the game. The player who won the hand that eliminated them gets to eat them. In the case of a split pot victory, the victors are to determine who gets to eat at their own discretion.
The game continues until there is only one player left, who will now be filled with all of their friends~
THE PLAY
To ensure smooth play, it is a good thing to have a standard way for the scene to go down.
Before anything start, an order will be determined between the players with some dice rolls. For each round, cards will be dealt in private, then players will be doing their different actions following that order. Players are free to add some fluff and flair to their post instead of simply stating what they want to do for the game. It will go around until everyone is done and the hand's winner has been declared. One turn around the table will done in the same order for some banter, ending with Maria who will then start the next round.
Maria will always make sure to keep track of all relevant information and will keep everyone updated as needed, so the players don't need to try and remember how much money they have left or what's the bet and pot currently at, for example.
Players who have been eaten will only be allowed to post during the banter periods, to avoid disturbing the game too much.
THE DEALER
When it comes to the dealer herself, Maria, she can be played in two distinct ways depending on preferences.
1- The cold, stoic dealer you usually come to associate with a casino.
2- A naughtier Maria, who wil actively tease and taunt the players as the game goes along, maybe, if alright with everyone, she'l get horny and whip out her shaft as well.
THE PRIZE
Well...there isn't really an actual prize for winning, only that you'd be the last one standing and have a gut full of your friends...Or...maybe the prize will be to have the chance of filling out Maria's gut instead, who knows~?
