Pok Deng Game Rules

There are 8 decks of game cards used and no joker card is used in the game.

At the start of a new shoe, the facilitator will shuffle the cards and insert the “cut card” into the shoe.

Then, the facilitator will draw a card from the shoe and turn it over. This will determine how many cards the facilitator will burn. The value of the card decides the number of cards to be burnt – except a 10 or face card, which will result in burning 10 cards.

When the facilitator draws the “cut card”, the current round will be the last round. More cards will be drawn in order to complete this last round.

After the last round, all cards will be shuffled and put into the shoe to start a new shoe.

There are 10 different option types:

Player 1	Player 2	Player 3	Player 4	Player 5
Player 1 Pair	Player 2 Pair	Player 3 Pair	Player 4 Pair	Player 5 Pair

How Results Are Determined

Player 1 to Player 5

Players 1 to 5 compare their hands to Banker’s separately. The hand with the higher points value of the cards receives the reward.

Player 1 Pair to Player 5 Pair

Player Pair receives the reward if the hand of the corresponding Player is a pair.

Gameplay

Plays are accepted after the countdown begins.

At the beginning of a round, the facilitator draws a card (face down) from the shoe. This card is burnt. Then, the facilitator distributes two cards to each Player, with Banker being the last.

Distributing order of the game:

First card	Player 1, Player 2, Player 3, Player 4, Player 5, Banker
Second card	Player 1, Player 2, Player 3, Player 4, Player 5, Banker

When the countdown is over, no more plays can be placed. The facilitator will then reveal the cards starting from Player 1 to Player 5, and Banker will be the last.

Each Player compares his or her hand to Banker’s hand.

9 points is the highest value, while 0 points is the lowest. Cards are given point values as follows: Ace = 1; 2-9 = face value; 10, J, Q and K = 0.

The hand is valued by the unit digit of the sum of two cards when it exceeds 9 points. For example, if the two cards were an 8 and a 7, the total would be 15 and the value would be 5 points.

For Player 1 Pair to Player 5 Pair, the Player Pair receives the reward if its hand is a pair.

Special Combinations

When special combinations listed in the table below appear, the hand value is counted as between 7 and 8 points.

Notes

1. When a player plays on Player 1, Player 2, Player 3, Player 4 or Player 5, the system will deduct the player’s coin balance by 2 times of the “play value”. Players should check whether there is sufficient balance.
2. Generally, the reward ratio should be 1:1 when playing on Player 1, Player 2, Player 3, Player 4 or Player 5.
3. When Banker receives the reward with a flush, a pair or any one of the special combinations listed in the table above, the reduction ratio would be 2:1 (See Example 4 & Example 6).
4. When Player receives the reward with a flush, a pair or any one of the special combinations listed in the table above, the reward ratio would be 2:1 (See Example 3).
5. When Banker has 0 points or 6 points, even Player receives the reward the round with a flush, a pair or any one of the special combinations listed in the table above, the reward ratio remain at 1:1 (See Example 8).
6. When Player has 8 points or 9 points with a flush or a pair, even Banker has 0 points or 6 points, the reward ratio remain at 2:1 (overriding Point 5) (See Example 9).

Disconnection Policy

If a player is disconnected from a game round, the round will continue until completion. All confirmed plays remain valid and will be settled as the round concludes. The player can review the play details in the “Play Record”.

Error Handling

In the event of an unexpected issue in the game, system or procedure, the game round will be temporarily paused while the facilitator informs the supervisor. If the issue can be resolved quickly, the round will resume and continue as usual. If an immediate resolution is not possible, the round will be cancelled, and all plays will be returned.
