We were able to blow locks open with cards because of the gelignite in them.
True story.

Better again.. when you have a crap hand and give up the first 2 hands to make a tasty pair in the 3rd and it works!

Great to see the kids adjusting their hands when that penny finally dropped

Aces in ours, pretty much follow poker rules

A flush is better than a straight in poker though, so it's not strictly poker rules though.

I don't know why this is though.

We were playing months ago, One of the lads was supping away, There was a handy pot after doubling up a few times,
Your man threw out his first hand.. three jacks, one of the lads threw three kings, The fella with the three jacks then threw out
nine, ten, jack, He was steamed so never spotted he had four jacks, He was stopped last hand, in again,

yeah.. I presume its because you are making a hand with 5 cards in classic poker and 3 cards in niner so the odds of getting 5 of 13 cards of one suit must be shorter than the odds of getting a series of 5 cards using all 4 suits in poker whereas the odds of getting 3 suited is easier than 3 in a series in niner?
