    TRIAL PERIOD:

you to play for a while.  At some point, your current game and high score
list will be reset.  To continue playing without the periodic resets, you

    PLAYING THE GAME:
    =================

After you start, you will be presented a board with a draw pile, and
25 'card slots' laid out in a 5 by 5 grid.  The object of the game is
to build the 10 best poker hands possible, 5 each horizontal and vertical.

The cards will be turned over one at a time to the draw pile.  To play
a card, simply click an empty slot and the current card will be played there.

As you play, your score will be automatically calculated for each of the
5 rows and 5 columns, based on the following scoring chart:

		straight flush = 540
		four of a kind = 330
		full house = 200
		flush = 120
		straight = 70
		three of a kind = 40
		two pair = 20
		one pair = 10

Standard 5 card poker rules apply.

If you accidentally place a card in the wrong slot, you can undo your last
move by selecting the undo command.  You can only undo the last move.

The game will keep track of the 8 highest scores that you attain.  You can
view the high score list at any time by selecting the show high scores menu
item.
