The Real Deal

From the introduction: I like Tabletop Role-Playing Games. To me, the best Tabletop RPGs are the ones that emulate the game we all played as kids, "Let’s Pretend." There were few, if any, rules, and what rules there were only made the game more adaptable, more free-form, more intuitive. I feel like we’d hit the Holy Grail of role-playing back then, and RPGs should strive to capture that magic again. I also like Poker. It’s fun. As I read through game manuals, I started thinking about an RPG that would use Poker rules instead of dice or charts; I couldn’t find anything like that, so... I made one. And here we are.
