Off the Hook

Off The Hook is a fun-filled, action-packed poker game that combines calculated chance with thought-provoking strategy. Each player gets ten white chips, two colored dice, one green marker, and one blue marker. The starting player takes five "community" dice, and one green die in the closed Off the Hook box. The player then shakes the box, and opens it to look inside, and announce a poker hand based on what they see. The box is then passed to the next player, who can either call their bluff, accept the call by looking in the box an making a new (higher) call, or give up an "Off the Hook" marker to pass the box without penalty. If a player gets caught bluffing, they lose the number of chips to the challenger equal to the number showing on the green die in the box. Otherwise, the challenger pays. The person with the most chips wins (usually the last one left in the game). Home Page: http://www.offthehookpoker.com/
