Tripoley Deluxe Edition; the Original Game of Michigan Rummy, Hearts, Poker Feature

Casino-style game with cards and chips. Each hand has three phases (labeled "Hearts", "Poker", and "Michigan Rummy", though only the poker phase has any resemblance to its namesake game). All cards are dealt out, including one extra hand which remains unseen. The first phase pays off for holding certain cards or combinations; the second is a hand of poker, each player selecting five cards from his hand to play; in the third phase, players play out their cards Fan Tan-style, and the first to go out wins chips.

Here's a game that has withstood the test of time. A traditional favorite, Tripoley combines the strategy and skill of hearts, poker, and Michigan rummy. One game of each constitutes a "round" of Tripoley. The group predetermines the number of rounds in each game before play begins. Designed for two to nine players, Tripoley is a popular choice for big and small groups alike. Comes with a specially designed plastic game tray, poker chips, and playing cards. --Alison Golder Item is in stock and ready to ship.
