Of course, they all cheat! To compete, you\u0026amp;rsquo;ll have to cheat like Hell...  and the more you do, the more doomed you all become.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWelcome to The Last Resort \u0026amp; Casino\u0026amp;hellip; and winning IS your last resort. To get to the Big Table, you\u0026amp;rsquo;ll face off against diabolical bosses like Dedly Aloor, Jack Potts, The Brothers Dreadful, \u0026amp; Roul-ette, each of whom twists the game in unique ways.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt\u0026amp;rsquo;s real poker - as far as playing poker in Hell goes, with you all trying individually to beat the house. Every Boss changes how you will approach the hand and has a bare minimum hand to beat, should their dealt cards not pan out.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt's a Texas Hold'em style game - and players get not two but three cards dealt to them (one up their sleeve for more options). You may earn powerful Favor cards that let you cheat, like making a four-card Flush, but at the cost of a Curse or suffering Temptation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYour chips will earn you Souls (the coin of the realm) which you'll need at the Big Table against The Devil Himself - or betting one of your five Power chips will gain you immediate abilities, like revealing one of the Boss's cards, or taking a face-up discard into your hand. But lose the hand and your wagered chips flip over to deliver harsh penalties. Suffer too much Temptation and the game ends in a loss. Manage to win against The Devil Himself and you might just earn your way back to the living.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt has the feel of high stakes poker, with no cash on the table. And delivers a whole Poker Night in just 90 minutes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe retail edition of the game features 52 custom 11.5g poker chips and six neoprene play mats inside the box. The Community board mats alone fill a 28\"x20\" space at the center of the table making it feel like a full poker table.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHell of a Deal is made for board gamers who love poker - and even if you are relatively new to poker, its cooperative nature and in-game guides make it approachable enough for anyone to play.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePoker is 100% skill and 50% luck.  Being a good cheat helps too. Have a Lucky Day!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u0026amp;mdash;description from the publisher\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/boardgamegeek.com\/boardgame\/463605\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0689\/1595\/3975\/files\/powered_by_BGG_03_LG.png?v=1786584357\" alt=\"Powered by BoardGameGeek\" style=\"max-width:150px\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c!--OBG-BGG-END--\u003e","brand":"PHD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52996625137975,"sku":null,"price":74.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0689\/1595\/3975\/files\/4db66158-1f46-47f2-8fc3-462d6d16df3a.jpg?v=1789589195","url":"https:\/\/on-boardgaming.com\/products\/hell-of-a-deal-cooperative-poker-game","provider":"On-Board Gaming","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
