A large pool of money collected by the house and awarded for some rare occurrence, typically a bad beat. Joker A 53rd card used mostly in draw games. The joker may usually. Fish from a boat. If there's no jetty nearby or if you simply prefer to be out on a boat, you can still have a lot of luck. Place lights on the bottom or sides of your boat or canoe. Or if you have a larger boat, you can use an underwater light, sinking it to the bottom and then bringing it back up to attract the fish.

Explanation of symbols
Configuration
- Individual. There are no teams. All players play for themselves and against the others.
- Partnership. The players are divided into fixed teams, normally three teams of three. The members of each team sit in a triangular formation, with each player sits between two opponents from each of the other teams.
- Alliance. Temporary teams (alliances) are formed during the game. Usually the teams are set by the bidding or by the location of certain cards. The teams generally change from deal to deal, so although players will need to co-operate with their partners, ultimately everyone plays for themselves.
- Sitting Out. A number in brackets [1] indicates players who do not take a full part in the game, but may have minor duties such as dealing the cards, fetching the beer or making the tea. Players generally take turns to sit out.
- Banker. One player is the banker, and the other players play against the banker, rather than against each other. Many casino games have this format, with a representative of the house playing as the banker. In home games, the role of banker usually passes from player to player, so that everyone has an opportunity to be the bank.
Design
This column indicates the type of cards or tiles needed. See the equipment section of the classified index for further details of the different designs.

Quantity
Greek Fish Poker Tournaments
This column gives the number of cards in the deck, indicates where multiple decks are used, and the number of jokers. Where the game can be played with various sizes or numbers of decks, perhaps depending on the number of players, the possibilities are listed, separated by commas. For example, '2x32' means a double 32-card deck: 64 cards in all with two copies of each card. '52+2J' means a 52-card deck with two jokers. '32, 36' means the game can be played with 32 or 36 cards. '2x52+2J, 3x52+3J' means that the game can be played with two 52-card decks plus two jokers (106 cards) or three 52-card decks plus three 52-card decks plus three jokers (159 cards).
Possible for Nine Players
Here is a list of other traditional card and tile games that can be played by nine players. These are games that although possible for nine, are not particularly recommended, since they work better with some other number of players.
