Her smooth dealing complete, Emmy carefully positioned the remainder of the deck in front of her. “You each have $1,000 in chips in front of you in various denominations.” She then turned her attention to the CE, who was first up for this round of betting. “You may fold, where you pay nothing, or you may call, where you meet the big blind amount of $10, or you may raise by doubling amount of the big blind. Begin.”

Aizala looked down at the cards in her hands with a slight frown. She still had no real idea how to play this game or if her cards were any good. Yet at the same time she didn’t want to fold right away. And really, there was nothing to lose. Even if she lost the game. So as she put two $5 chips in the middle, she said matter-of-factly, “I call as well.”
~Lt. Tija, Asst. CMO
OOC: I updated the pot amounts above.
Emmy offered a terse nod of approval at Tija as she put the chips in. Her eyes next rested on the XO, noting that then only the CSO remained in this round of betting.

Max watched Tija toss her chips into the pot. Without missing a beat, he picked up two $5 chips and tossed them into the pot. “Call.”
It was a decent enough hand, and early enough in the game, that it was definitely worth the bet. So might as well act decisively.
Cmdr. Harkness - XO
Garth snorted as he inspected his cards, holding them close to his face as he considered. Then he swatted a couple of his chips with other hand, sending them sliding into the middle. “Call.”
(Lt. J.g. Garth, CSO)
Emmy nodded approvingly. It was interesting to see that all of the crew had opted to participate in this hand. She carefully placed one card from the top of the deck to the side before dealing out three cards face up in front of the group:
Six of Spades, Eight of Hearts, Eight of Spades
She briefly looked at the cards, processing the various possibilities, before turning to the CE, expectantly.
Davis, CO
OOC: My bad, should be the CSO. Don’t trust Wikipedia.
Garth leaned forward as the flop was revealed, mouth turned downward in a thoughtful frown at first. Then he glanced at his cards and his eyebrows shot upwards as he leaned back again to look around at the others, a bit more lively than before. It was only after a few long seconds of silence and probably the feeling of a few eyes on him that Garth grunted in surprise, realizing from the context that it was his turn. “Ermhurm, I raise $20,” he said quickly before tossing two $10 chips into the middle.
(Lt. J.g. Garth, CSO)
OOC: I’m sorry, folks. A combination of events conspired to make posting impossible this week.
IC:
Emmy offered Garth a brief nod before turning to the COS and raising an eyebrow.
Davis, CO
Nijix noticed everyone rushed through their turns too fast. She hadn’t caught all ticks or tells, but she spotted a few common ones. Her eyes looked at her hidden cards again. Odds of her winning weren’t the best, but they were not the worst. A pure gamble, she thought. When her turn came around, she tapped the $10 chips idly in thought. Finally she decided.
“Call.” She tossed in two $10 chips, matching his raise. This left her with $970.
-Lt. Nijix Tavium, CoS
Emmy enjoyed the brief moment watching the COS watch the rest of the crew. She had hoped that this exercise would allow her to learn more about their body language, although it was also an excuse to check the box of a social and bonding occasion. She nodded at Tavium and then focused her attention on the Andorian Chief Engineer, curious to see what his actions would be.
Davis, CO
Keval’s antennae moved as he reached for a stick of salt and vinegar chewing gum. He chewed on it as he studied he fellow officers, before tossing in two $10 chips. “I call,” he said. The Andorian was ready for a fight on the next card.
