Texas hold'em poker, remade as a cooperative game. The players are a gang of robbers aiming to crack the vault three times. Everyone looks at their two hole cards and the community cards revealed round by round, and estimates where their hand will rank among the group. You cannot talk it over. You claim numbered chips to declare your estimate. After four betting rounds, if everyone's prediction matches the real ranking, the vault opens. It is not a bluffing game. It is a game about making everyone's reads agree. More players make it harder. It won the Casual Games category of the American Tabletop Awards 2025.
