Description:

This swap is more like a game then a normal swap.

So, who wants to play postcard poker?!

Here's what ya do:

*Get two postcards. ( Can be store bought or hand made. These cards are SENDERS CHOICE. Please do not comment as "I would like this type of card" )

*Find a deck of cards.

*Take out 4 cards from the deck. Four totally random cards. (message me with those card if you don't mind.)

  • On the back of ONE postcard, you are going to write a short message to your partner. You will also write the four cards you picked out ( number and suit ie 3s , 6c , Kh, 2d. [s=spades, c=clubs, h=hearts, d=diamonds ] ) This will be 4 out of 5 cards for your partners hand of poker.

  • Send your postcard in a TIMELY fashion, as this is a game, not just a swap, they depend on getting your postcard!

  • Once you get your postcard, message me the FOUR CARDS you were assigned. I will message you back with TWO cards. One card is the wild card and is the same for everyone. The other is your 5th card, and it is pulled at the time of your message. The WILD CARD is pulled at the start of the swap and written down in the "swap folder".

Once the winner is determined, we will send them their prize... Which is the second postcard we all have.

I will email everyone with the winners address, and you will send out their postcard asap.

IF you have not gotten your postcard by the end of the swap, PLEASE message me. I will try to give you your original cards, but if not, I will draw a random hand for you to use. But, I hope this does NOT happen, as everyone should be able to send two postcards. If you can not, please do not join.

The rules:

Newbies allowed with a fully filled out profile.

ABSOLUTELY NO 1's or 3's in the last 6 months! I do not want to take the chance of someone not getting their hand.

IF you don't think your postcard will make it to your partner on time, message me with your partners name and the cards you wrote on the postcard, and I will contact them.

Please message me with ANY questions that you have.

Again:

  • two postcards.
  • one goes to partner with short message and 4 cards.
  • one goes to winner.
  • message me with 4 cards when receive.

This swap IS international.

Postcards should be sent naked, as well as the postcard to the eventual winner.

If this goes well, I will host a number three- which is 5 card draw poker!

EDIT - I just got done with the first Postcard Poker, and going by that, I'm going to ask that... WHEN YOU DRAW THE HAND FOR YOUR PARTNER - please message me with the hand and who it's for. This way, if they do not get their hand by the end of the swap , everyone does not have to sit around waiting to be told who the winner is. (as was the case with the first Postcard Poker - Sorry I didnt think of this for the first one! lol)
