Basic Pokeno Rules

Step 1

Party

Diaper Poker Party Rules Games

  • From the Pokeno Card Game Box, each player is given a Pokeno game card and poker/bingo chips.
    • To begin, one player will act as the dealer and will call cards from the deck of playing cards.
            • For example, as the dealer calls the cards it should sound something like this:
              • Queen of Hearts, 3 of Hearts, 10 of Clubs, Jack of Diamonds, and so on.
        • Each Winner of a Pokeno game will act as the next dealer and call the cards.
        • The dealer should be sure to shuffle the deck of cards before each game begins.
          • An automatic card shuffler could come in handy for a night of Pokeno fun!
        • The Pokeno dealer does not have to be a player:
          • The Pokeno card game can also be played with a dealer, who is not a player, and will only call the cards.
          • If your Pokeno group will play at several different tables, be sure to have extra card tables and chairs on hand.

        Step 2

        • When the dealer calls a card that appears on the players’ game cards, the players will place a chip on that space on their card.
        • The cards will continue to be called until a player has completed a horizontal or vertical row of 5 chips.
        • When that occurs, the winning player should exclaim, “Out!”

        Step 3

        According to the basic rules of Pokeno, the game can be scored in either of two ways:

        1. The winning player takes all the remaining chips from the other players’ game boards, or
        2. The winning player receives a “prize” based on their hand’s poker value.
          • The type of “prize” won will be determined by the group before the game begins
