[QUOTE="Lanefan, post: 7471776, member: 29398"] But is it, though. See below... [MENTION=22779]Hussar[/MENTION], Lanefan, [MENTION=42582]pemerton[/MENTION] and [MENTION=5142]Aldarc[/MENTION] sit down at a table to play some poker. (and, probably, argue the night away :) ) Each starts with 100 chips. Ante is 2 per deal. First deal - 5-card stud. Hussar does OK, Lanefan does poorly, pemerton and Aldarc just lose their ante. Hussar 126, Lanefan 78, pemerton 98, Aldarc 98 Second deal - texas hold'em - Hussar again does quite well, with the main victim this time being pemerton as Lanefan folds after the turn. Aldarc again just loses ante. Hussar 162, Lanefan 66, pemerton 76, Aldarc 96 Third deal - 2's and jokers wild - this time Aldarc rises and clobbers Hussar, while Lanefan and pemerton stay out of the way. Hussar 130, Lanefan 64, pemerton 74, Aldarc 132 And so it goes, on into the night as the table-talk RPG arguments rage on. Now, while the rules are changing with each deal, does the chip-count continuity from deal to deal mean we're playing the same game of poker through the evening? Or is "game" defined by the ruleset thus meaning we're playing a different game with each deal, and if true what term can be applied to the overall evening's play as defined by the chip count...does poker have "campaigns"? :) Lanefan [/QUOTE]
