Welcome to the card game poker, which is very different from help poker.
Collecting playing cards from mobs will earn you quest points when you
present a poker hand to the Card Shark. All acceptable hands and their quest
point value are listed here.
50 Quest Points
Royal Flush:
Ace, Elemental, Demon, Mephit and 10, all from the same suit.
40 Quest Points
Straight Flush:
Any five cards in sequence of the same suit.
35 Quest Points
Four of a kind:
Any four cards of the same face value from any combination of suits.

25 Quest Points
Flush:

15 Quest Points
Three of a kind:
Any three cards of the same face value from any suit.
10 Quest Points
Two Pair:
Two pairs of cards, any suit.

One pair of cards, any suit.
1 Quest Point

One playing card, any value or suit.
** You do not need to collect 5 cards to play, you may simply turn in
a single card for one quest point, or hold onto it and collect more.
** This is an ongoing game as it has been coded into the MUD, so your
cards will not become obsolete.
** You do not need to have autoloot toggled on, these will be looted
automatically from a corpse as long as you get exp from killing it.
You must also have the capacity to carry the card, if you are over
weight or item count, the card will not be looted.
** You must have only the sequence of cards in your inventory which
you intend to turn in. If the mob returns no rewards it could be
because you do not have a single sequence in your inventory.
** If the Card Shark eats cards you didn't intend due to you having
the wrong sequence in your hand or more than one set of cards,
the immortal staff will NOT reimburse you.
