How to play

How to get started

1. Locate and run the python file main.py.
2. The command line game first asks for the specifics of money distribution, i.e. the value of the small blind and also the amount of money that each player gets at the start of the game.
3. Next, it asks for the number of players who will be playing and then asks for their usernames one-by-one. (After the usernames are registered, they are listed at once as a bulleted list).
4. The game will then ask for the email ids of the users (This is to email the private cards to each user). (Note: It is important that the email ids be correctly entered the first time!)
5. The game of poker proceeds like normal after this. Click here for rules.
