GOAL
Make the best 5-card poker hand, or make everyone else fold.

YOUR HAND
You get 2 private cards. Up to 5 shared cards appear in the center.

YOUR TURN
Choose CHECK when nobody has bet, CALL to match the bet, RAISE to increase it, or FOLD to leave the hand. ALL IN bets all your chips.

HAND ORDER
Royal/Straight Flush, Four of a Kind, Full House, Flush, Straight, Three of a Kind, Two Pair, One Pair, High Card.

21 / BLACKJACK
Select 21 in the lobby. This is a six-deck hit/stand tournament: each player receives two cards and plays against the dealer. The dealer stands on 17. Blackjack pays 3:2, a normal win pays 1:1, and a push returns the hand wager. Split, double, surrender, and insurance are not used.

UNO
Match the discard by color, number, or symbol. Draw one when you cannot or choose not to play. Skip, Reverse, Draw Two, Wild, and Wild Draw Four use the official classic rules; cards cannot be stacked. Empty your hand to score every card left in your opponents' hands. First to 500 points wins.

CALL UNO
Call UNO when playing down to one card. An opponent can catch an undeclared player before the next turn begins, forcing that player to draw two cards.

WILD DRAW FOUR
You may play it only when you hold no card matching the current color. The next player may accept four cards or challenge. A successful challenge makes the offender draw four; a failed challenge makes the challenger draw six.

TABLE SIZE
Each room supports 2 to 8 human players. The host chooses blinds, chips, turn time, and the player limit in the lobby.

ROOM ENTRY
Real rooms require one 1 VTHO payment per player for the entire room, not each hand. The winner receives the full escrow pot. Demo rooms are free. Explicitly leaving forfeits entry.

ESCROW STEPS
The host first clicks CREATE ESCROW. After that transaction confirms, every player clicks PAY 1 VTHO ENTRY. When at least two entries are confirmed, the host clicks LOCK AFTER 2 PAID before starting.

DISCONNECTING
If your connection drops during Hold'em, your current hand auto-folds; future blinds still post while at least two players remain online. In 21, your wager still plays automatically. In UNO, your timed turns draw and pass automatically. Reconnect with the same wallet and name. Explicitly leaving forfeits your entry.

PAUSING
The host can pause or resume an active game. Other players can request a pause; the game stops only after the host accepts. Turn and between-hand timers resume with the time that remained.

21 TIEBREAK
If every remaining player loses their last wager in the same hand, the best final total wins the tournament. A natural 21 ranks first, then the highest total at or below 21, then the lowest bust. Exact ties use table order.
