I came up with a sweet game while in my kayak today. Duck Poker

Ace - Pintail or Canvasback
King - Mallard drake or Redhead drake
Queen - Mallard hen or old squaw
Jack - Spoonbill or C golden eye
10 - NA Wigeon or scoter
9 - Woody or rider
8 - Gadwall or B golden eye
7 - BW Teal or Buffy
6 - GW Teal or Rudy
5 - C Teal or ring neck
4 - Eurasian Wigeon or tufted
3 - Black Duck or smew
2 - Whistling Duck or merganser

Joker/wild - Harlequin

Rules are the same as any poker game as far as hands go (royal flush, straight, etc...) and you can only have 4 of one kind.

Everyone could pick their best hunt from the year and use it as their hand. Posting a picture of it here.

If I wanted I would use today's hand...

Pretty cool idea Woody.

You may as well fold now...I'm hunting Canada in December and they have a 6 can limit.

Sure. Are we going to make wagers?

Although us northern boys don't have too many weeks left so there won't be vary many participants in January.

I made a retarded comment and deleted it before Dan could get his post in.
I think when he noticed he deleted his comment.

If this weather stays like it is now you might wanna take ice fishing shit to Canada instead of gun, hell of a good idea for a game

I think I'll fold right now.

My best hand this year, K high, with a merganser kicker :shock:

Create two suits, puddlers and divers, so you can get a straight flush, which I believe is what you intended. If you want 4 suits, split them further into hens and drakes.

It seems like a fun idea. It would be more fun if I thought I had a real chance of even getting a single decent hand during a year.

BTW, why is a mallard a K and a black duck a 3? Mallard is king, no doubt about it, but I'd put black duck up in the face cards and move the shoveler down.

I was gonna ask if you wanted to play poker for real

Posted: **Sat Nov 15, 2014 9:06 am**

I don't even know how to play real poker. I lose.

This looks like an awesome idea, can't wait to see how it works out.

So what do you do? Enter your best hand for the season or is this a week to week?

Posted: **Sat Nov 15, 2014 9:47 am**

Have to be week at a time wouldn't it? Surely in a seasons time everyone would tie with a top notch hand. My seasons starts a week from today if you girls need another player

Posted: **Sat Nov 15, 2014 10:49 am**

Everything got locked up here, guess I'm out of the tourney before it started

Although if we are using what the group shot, and not necessarily you, and best from the year, I'd have a full house of aces over kings with cans and mallard/redheads

Posted: **Sat Nov 15, 2014 11:58 am**

If anyone gets 4 aces they cheated.

I wish I could be assured of a top notch hand.

If you split it, two suits puddlers and divers, few people would get a royal flush. Few would even get a straight flush. If you add that only 2 "cards" of the same "suit" could be used, it would be tough to get 4 of a kind because, for example, it would have to be 2 mallards and 2 redheads to get 4 kings.

We have a season-long bowfishing tournment that is a lot of fun and you get points by getting the most species, certain combos are bonus points, points for the largest (doesn't really work with ducks but bands could add points). This kind of thing could be a lot of fun, the problem for me is I just don't see the variety of ducks or this year pretty much ducks at all.

Yea man I hear ya I gotta drive 8 damn hours to get to my fields. Hunting where I Iive sucks. I try for 4-5 trips around 4 days each. If i only hunted east tn I'd be hurtin for the most part

uploadfromtaptalk1416111139907.jpg

3-5 from right are cans, middle are mallards, and just to the left of them are reds

Posted: **Sat Nov 15, 2014 11:19 pm**

I guess I didn't remember/read it right because the reds and mallards are hens, but the next day we got 4 drake reds for 4 kings with an ace kicker

uploadfromtaptalk1416111448786.jpg

Or 5 kings with the drake mallard too?

This is all group counting tho obviously. Daily limit on reds is 2, cans 1, and mallards 4 so... I guess 2 kings and a queen for me that day

Btw, I want to call discrimination that you don't have ringers in this game, lol
Edit: never mind, see them now
