The RSA token fob that I just received displays a 6 digit number when the button is pressed.
After getting bored with playing the highest number wins game with my colleagues I am proposing a better game.
RSA Token Poker!!
Feel free to correct the heirarchy of hands and add ones that you think
should be there but to get it started I offer in order of best to worst hand:
6 of a kind;
5 of a kind;
4 of a kind, 1 pair;
4 of a kind;
2 triple;
1 triple, 1 pair;
1 triple;
3 pair;
2 pair;
1 pair.
Online competition is possible if you register the tokens with a suitable radius server to prevent cheating by using multiple tokens.
Namaste

Oh, good! Liar's Poker for security wonks. |

We actually tossed around this idea at work the last few days - funny I should find this here. This is what we've come up with thus far:
|
|
|
Lowest to Highest :
High Card 156820 ß Where 0 is the highest number, but no actual hand is achieved
|
|
|
One Pair 115689 ß Any 2 matching numbers but nothing else
|
|
|
Two Pair 112286 ß Any 2 sets of matching numbers
|
|
|
3 of a kind 333659 ß Any 3 matching numbers
|
|
|
Mini Straight 123489 ß Any sequence of 4 digits in consecutive order
|
|
|
Full house 555660 ß any 3 of a kind + a pair
|
|
|
4 of a kind 999912 ß Any 4 matching numbers
|
|
|
3 pair 552244 ß any 3 pairs
|
|
|
Big straight 123458 ß any sequence of 5 digits in consecutive order
|
|
|
Double Triple 333666 ß 3 of a kind + 3 of a kind
|
|
|
Full Mansion 555599 ß 4 of a kind + a pair
|
|
|
5 of a kind 222220 ß Any 5 matching numbers
|
|
|
Super Straight 123456 ß Any sequence of 6 digits in consecutive order
|
|
|
6 of a kind 888888 ß All 6 digits are matching
|
|
|
We are debating the Wrap Straight - ie 789012 and where that belongs |
|
|
0 is high?
Good as the high card question did come up here.
What we now need is a laminated card with the Fob Poker rules that fits in my pass holder and all will be sweet. |

|
I just woke up to a "333333" and had to see if this was a real game anywhere. Alas, it's only a halfbaked idea. |
|
|
Watch out for phony "000000"s and "888888"s, which can (probably) be achieved by removing the battery. |
|
|
Have people done the odds on these? Are the odds in line
with the ranking of the hands? (I would do this, but it's
1:37am, 6:37am and maybe 4:37am on my various body-
clocks). |
