**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.

I didn't say how he died. Read the question again. I said he played a role on TV in which his character suffered from a disease that he also had in real life. As in alcoholism.

John Spencer from West Wing

Correct. You have been awarded the King of Diamonds in exchange for the 10 of Spades.

Next Question

I am ending this contest early and will roll the prize over into the next contest. Unfortunately, with the new rules in place, we aren't making any progress (especially towards the end of the contest).

Look for a modified version of the contest tomorrow!

Alcoholism isnt a disease... its a choice, Cancer is a disease

Alcoholism isnt a disease... its a choice, Cancer is a disease

The U.S. Government would disagree with you. As would virtually every credible medical institution.

Alcoholism is a chronic disease in which your body becomes dependent on alcohol. When you have alcoholism, you lose control over your drinking. You may not be able to control when you drink, how much you drink, or how long you drink on each occasion. If you have alcoholism, you continue to drink even though you know it's causing problems with your relationships, health, work or finances.

It's possible to have a problem with alcohol but not have all the symptoms of alcoholism. This is known as "alcohol abuse," which means you drink too much and it causes problems in your life although you aren't completely dependent on alcohol. If you have alcoholism or you abuse alcohol, you may not be able to cut back or quit without help. A number of approaches are available to help you recover from alcoholism, including medications, counseling and self-help groups.
