Rules & Regulations

1. Only registered riders can collect cards at each stop. Riders receive wristbands at check-in and present them as proof of registration at each stop.
2. The dealer at each stop will allow each registered rider to draw one card from the dealer's pre-marked deck. If the rider already holds that card (same suit and value), they redraw until they get a new one. At that point, a rider may pay to swap once per stop: Flyway $10 · Fossil Cove $20 · Nomads $30 · Columbus House $40 · George's $50. Pay with cash, check, or at igfn.us/form/Yf2tcg / text mtwfun2026 to 41444.
3. Cards are personal — no exchanging between riders.
4. Cards don't need to match color, since they come from different decks.
5. Once a rider has their card, the dealer marks it with the rider's initials and enters it into the results spreadsheet. Keep your cards until the end to verify correct recording.
6. At the final stop (George's Majestic Lounge), each rider may buy one additional card for $60. This card is added to the hand, and the rider uses the best 5-card combination. Pay with cash, check, or at igfn.us/form/Yf2tcg / text mtwfun2026 to 41444.
7. If a rider has missed stops or wants a fresh start, they may pay $100 to turn in all cards and receive a brand-new 5-card hand. This can be done once per rider, and the $60 add-on card option still applies. Pay at igfn.us/form/Yf2tcg / text mtwfun2026 to 41444.
8. Hands are ranked using standard poker hand rankings with no suit ranking. Ties are broken by dealing a fresh hand to tied riders; the process repeats until there is a single winner. No additional or new card purchases allowed during tiebreakers.
9. Riders must verify their recorded card values at miracletravelworks.org/pokerride before the announcement. Unless prior arrangements are made, riders must be present to win. If the top hand holder is absent, the next-highest hand wins.
