**CLOSED** 5 Card Trivia - December 9

[NDN]

Our 5 Card Trivia Contest works like this...

1. We will begin this contest by drawing three random community cards (the flop) from a standard 52-card deck.

2. I will then post a trivia question, riddle, or other quiz variation.

3. The first person to respond with the correct answer will receive a random card from the remainder of the deck.

4. Once someone has responded with the correct answer, I will then ask a new question.

5. This process will continue until the remaining cards have been awarded.

6. After we have awarded a card for the correct answer to question 24, we will randomly draw a fourth community card (the turn).

6. The last remaining card will be used as the fifth community card (the river).

5. The person who can make the best poker hand without using the community cards (does not need to be a full 5-cards) will receive a $10 Amazon.com gift card!

6. At the start of each contest, $5 will be contributed to the high hand jackpot. To win the high hand jackpot, you must use two of your cards and three community cards.

7. The high hand needed to win the jackpot is: Aces full of Tens or better.

Best Poker Hand Prize: $10

Current High Hand Jackpot: $5

Rules:

1. Each member may only guess once per question. However, you may ask for clarification as often as you'd like.

2. After you have won a card, you may not guess again until another card has been awarded to a different member.

3. I reserve the right to provide hints and/or replace a question if I feel it will help move the game along.

4. Each member will be limited to a maximum of five cards. However, you may continue to play and receive cards, but for each new card you receive, one of your cards will be added back to the deck at random.

Question 4

In the village of Tomako, there is a small cemetery that the residents keep in pristine condition. One way they are able to accomplish this is by enforcing a rule that says if you live within 5-miles of the cemetery you cannot be buried there.

Why do they enforce this rule?

Is this a true story or a riddle?

[NDN]

Is this a true story or a riddle?

Boo. Way to kill the fun by asking for clarification! It's a riddle, but I suppose it could be real, although I made up the story so it's not very likely.

[ScareCrowAKA]

You cant be buried if you are alive?

[NDN]

You cant be buried if you are alive?

Question 8

What was the name of the first casino to open on what is now known as the Las Vegs Strip?

[eejit101]

the first on what is currently the Strip was the El Rancho Vegas, opening on April 3, 1941, with 63 rooms. That casino stood for almost 20 years before being destroyed by a fire in 1960. Its success spawned a second hotel on what would become the Strip, the Hotel Last Frontier, in 1942.
