**CLOSED** 5 Card Trivia Contest - November 24 - 30

[NDN]

Question 10

Below is a short story. In this story are three character names from a movie. The first person to answer with the character names and the movie name will be awarded the next card!

As night began to fall, a dark shadow was cast on the tiny village of Portage. In this village, there lived a sassy old lady who cooked a mean stew every evening. However, tonight she decided to chance it and went to the corner pub where, of all things, she ordered stew!

I'm impressed! I thought if I hid names in a little story I would stump everyone! I think I'll try the story thing again though, certainly makes things much less Googleable.

You have been awarded the 3 of Spades. This gives you a pair of 3's and puts you in the lead!

I'm quite thoroughly enjoying this new contest by the way! Just need to keep coming up with new ways to ask questions and we'll have ourselves a great contest!

Answer - Dice


Also - This is a competition for the BEST 5 card hand? So surely a pair of 3s = only 2 cards....

[ScareCrowAKA]

dude u knew he was gonna get that... the king of bookworm... I cant get over 20k on that game... its 5 card hand, but noone has 5 cards yet, so by default, a pair is in the led!

I can see the words g-a-y and Hung

[eejit101]

Bookworm is a cunning game. I dont get alot of words. I only get about 15 Its about WHICH words you get!

Correct! You have been awarded the 10 of Clubs and are now leading with a pair of 10's!

To answer your question, there is no minimum number of cards needed, it's simply the best hand you can make with the cards that you have.
