Shahahahahaha! I hope you're all settling in nicely with your new Tribes, because today's challenge is all about working together!

I hope you're all familiar with the game of poker? If not, no worries! This challenge is going to BARELY be poker-adjacent, but for this challenge's scoring, please refer to this page:

http://www.wsop.com/poker-hands/

Your goal is to possess, as a tribe, the best poker hand.

Each player will be dealt four cards to their confessionals. Upon receiving these cards, they must Discard: [Card Name] two of them immediately. You must choose wisely which two cards to keep and which to discard.

Once a player discards their two cards, a mod, when available, will grant them access to their Group Thread. Within, they may add their cards to the group's. Within this thread, the group must come to a collective decision and discard down to six cards.

The advantaged tribe will have their pick of one of the other Tribe's Group Discard pile. This will make their final hand contain seven cards..
The penaltied tribe will have to discard down to five cards instead of six.

Once a team decides on a final hand of six cardsseven or five cards, they will be given access to the Final Thread.

Within the final thread are four cards that both teams will share. Using the tribe's final hand of cards plus the four shared cards, the team must decide on and submit a final hand of five cards. Final Hand: [List the five cards here]. As the shared cards in the Final Thread are shared, if one tribe uses any of the shared cards in their Final Hand, the other tribe will still have access to them.

Once again, the winning tribe will be the one with the best poker hand. In the case of a tie, the tribe that submits their Final Hand first wins, What are you playing for?

The losing tribe has a date with me at Tribal Council.

Ask questions here. The challenge will end 12 hours after it is posted. All answers submitted after that point will not be considered. Hang tight as we divvy up the cards.

Survivors ready? Go!

Yes, a game sounds fun. I think I'll pass on betting the immunity, however. :P

Like for real tho, I actually did spend about an hour playing Texas Hold'em on the site that Arlong linked us to for this challenge.
