    Funstuff Ride Over Please Delete ~ Let's Play Poker ~ Simple Mail Outs with a Twist & Prize! ~ Sunshinesmom was our WINNING POKER HAND! Congrats! Thanks for riding!

    Poker Train: Join me for a game of Poker!!
    I will be taking 10 riders along with me.

    I will start the train by mailing 5 cards + 20 coupons to every rider!! We will be using a standard deck of 52 cards, so 2 cards will not be in play. I will shuffle and deal the 10 hands and place them into the envies. I will include 20 coupons, trying my best to match your wish lists!

    You’ll receive your envie from me with your 5 playing cards (this is your hand). Now you must choose a card to “discard”…place your discarded playing card (only ONE) along with 25 coupons to the 1st rider you are assigned to. Everyone will do this, so you hang on to 4 cards and mail 1 to your assigned rider.

    Then when you receive your card from the first rider, you’ll get a potluck of coupons (hopefully full of wishes) and ONE playing card, add that to your 4 cards, look them over and choose ONE to discard (i.e. send to the 2nd rider you’re assigned to). This happens a total of 3 times.

    On your last mailing, you will mail ALL five cards back to me and 20 coupons!! (Please check wish list as I will do the same for you with initial mail out)

    Mail Outs will be Tuesdays. Depending on how fast the train fills and how quickly I can get the envies started will determine your first mail date, either March 1st or March 8th and continuing the following two weeks. For this train, I will ask that you not mail early!!

    So, your goal with your 5 cards is to have the WINNING Poker Hand!! Don’t know much about Poker, check out wikipedia’s article for the ranking of Poker hands: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poker_hands Once I receive all the envies back, I’ll post who the winner is!!

    So, what do you WIN? I provide the prize!!
    Winner’s Choice:
    $5 Target GC ~ $5 Walmart GC ~ $5.44 PP Gift Funds


    The Basics:
    Envie Must:
    Contain 25 or more quality coupons that expire 2 weeks or more from the mail date (shorter dates are okay, as long as they are extras)
    *By signing up for this train, you agree to all the rules of this train!*
    You may ride up to 5 trains at a time @ HCW, so if you are already on 5, hope to catch you next time!
    You must post when you mail and when you receive. This is a requirement to ride this train.
    Of course the forum rules apply to all trains conducted on HCW, so please be sure you know the rules before you sign up.
    Feedback is never required, but is always appreciated.
    No baby, pet, meds, or oddball products that very few members use like depends unless you have an exact wish list match. Example: If someone says they can use cat food frees, do not include regular cat food, unless it is an extra.
    Any envie sent that does not meet all requirements will require an immediate remail!
    You must write the train name and your user name somewhere on the envie. Please do not forget to do this!! Some of us are riding multiple trains, making database trades, sending RAOKS, etc.
    If you happen to mail out late for any reason, please PM me and post to the thread so that your buddy knows to watch for the envie. Life happens and it’s okay, communication is very helpful in the event of a late mail.
    If for any reason, your envie is not received, you will be asked to re-mail at the 2 week point. Joining this train is your agreement to this rule. Any envie that is not reported as “not received” by the two week point will be marked received.

    If you'd like to ride this train, please post below and PM me with your name & mailing address! Let's have some FUN!!

    Let's try not to mail out too early...don't want your opponents to possibly have SIX cards at one time! That could make a big difference in what they choose to discard!
