- Motor City Card Guppies is a fun, simple game which challenges you to
- achieve the highest monthly score possible.
-
- The object of the game is to:
-
- A) Be the first player to reach 2,000,000,000 (2 billion) dollars.
-
- or...
-
- B) Be the highest scorer for the month.
-
- A) When a player reaches 2,000,000,000 points (or dollars), the player is
- put into the hall of fame for that month. The player is then considered
- a winner and can not play until the next month's play is started. The
- overall winner is the player who reaches 2,000,000,000 points first.
-
- B) If no one reaches 2,000,000,000 points during the month, the player with
- the highest score is declared the winner.
-
- You will start with $200 at the beginning of each month. If you lose all
- of your money on any given day, your turn is ended for that day. Then the
- system will either cash-in one of your banks or restart you at $200 (if
- you have no banks) the next day that you play.
-
- To play the game, you wager some or all of your "score", guessing if the
- next card that is drawn will be higher or lower than the current face-up
- card.
-
- There are three tiers on the game board. Tiers one and two pay off at
- 2 to 1 odds and tier three pays off at 3 to 1. You may wager any amount
- between $1 and the full amount of your "score" on the first two tiers.
- However, on the third tier, you are required to wager at least half of
- your bankroll.
-
- With each "round" you will begin at the bottom tier. An initial face-up
- card is displayed. The trick is to guess if the next card to be displayed
- will be higher or lower than the face-up card. So, you must make a wager.
- You can do this by either selecting to enter the amount you wish to wager,
- or by selecting H to bet half your "score" or A to bet all of your "score".
- ACES ARE HIGH and DUECES ARE LOW. If you "tie", the house will give you
- back half of your bet.
-
- You are allowed to C>hange one card per tier. For example, if the current
- face-up card is an 8 and you so desired, you could select C to exchange the
- draw pile card for the face-up card.
-
- Each time you get a score of $10,000,000 or more, you will receive one
- "bank". Each bank is worth $10,000,000. When a bank is earned, $10,000,000
- is subtracted from your current score. At the end of the month, the player
- with the most banks and highest score is the winner. Banks are considered
- "history", so they are not readily cashable. However, if you start a new
- day with $0 and you have at least one bank, the system will cash-in a bank
- for you and adjust your score accordingly.
