Music Poker has been used on a weekly basis for years at a number of venues. We have venues that have run continuously for over 9 years
(except for COVID, of course...)
After establishing the demographic (age/genre) of the patrons, the Dealer (game host or DJ) chooses from over 90 (YES, NINETY!) categories and gives each patron a playsheet with 5 poker hands printed on it. Although every playsheet has the same kind of poker hands (4 of a kind, full house, etc), every playsheet is unique and every poker hand is unique. Printed on each playing card is the title and artist of a popular song relevant to the chosen category. For example, the Two of Diamonds may have "Rasputin" printed on it, and when the Two of Diamonds appears anywhere on any playsheet, it will be the same song.
The Dealer plays songs at random, if any player finds the song on their playsheet, they mark it with their custom labelled poker marker. The first player to "make" a poker hand (marks all five cards) wins a prize and that "hand" is eliminated from play for all other players.
The Dealer usually presents 3 or 4 different rounds during a game, each 35-45 minute round being a different category. Click here if you wish to see a short video on how to play...
