Scotch Hold'em Poker Rules

  1. Every player gets a hand between 0 and 1000.
  2. If all players can agree to a split of 1, then the game ends.
  3. If any player aborts negotiations, then play proceeds to showdown:
    1. All players win a showdown bonus of 0.1 / n, where n is the number of players.
    2. All players' hands, and the community card are revealed. The community card is a number between 0% and 100%.
    3. The player with the best hand wins the showdown, but only if his hand wins even after being handicapped by multiplying it with the community card.
    4. The winner (if any) wins 1 in addition to the showdown bonus.
