POKER HAS A TRUMP CARD
Four powers. Many faces of surprise.
In Naiko mode, your cards aren't your only play. Powers change what you know, what you have, or how much a rival can raise. You decide when to use them.
ANTICIPATE
Sneak Peek
Destellos: 1
A glimpse of the future before you decide.
When and how to use it
You privately see a card from the next round: the first flop card if you are in preflop, the turn if you are in the flop, or the river if you are in the turn. The power does not move or change the cards.
When
On your turn, before acting. Cannot be used on the river.
What you must know
Once per hand. No one else sees the card you looked at. If a card is later drawn from the deck with Sleeve Swap in preflop, the next community card can change.
Imagine this hand
You have four hearts between your hand and the flop. You look at the upcoming turn: it is another heart. Now you have information to decide your bet; winning still depends on the full hand.
SWAP YOUR HAND
Sleeve Swap
Destellos: 2
That card doesn't convince you. Give it a second chance.
When and how to use it
You choose one of your two private cards, discard it, and receive the next card from the deck without seeing it beforehand. The discarded card is not played again in that hand.
When
In preflop and before your first betting action. Paying a blind does not count as that action.
What you must know
Once per hand and only one card. You do not choose the new card and you cannot undo the swap. Your cards remain private.
Imagine this hand
You receive 7♣ and 2♦. You swap the 2♦ and an A♦ appears. Your hand is now 7♣ A♦. It could have also been a card that didn't help you.
LIMIT THE RAISE
Short Anchor
Destellos: 2
Put a limit on that rival who wants to bet big.
When and how to use it
You choose a rival and limit their maximum raise to the size of a pot raise during the current round. They can still check, call, or fold when those actions are legal.
When
On your turn, on a rival who can act and has not yet acted in this round.
What you must know
Once per hand. Each rival can only receive one valid Short Anchor declaration per round, even if it blocks them. Never allows betting more chips than they have, nor eliminates a minimum raise that would otherwise be legal. Expires when moving to the next round.
Imagine this hand
There are 100 chips in the pot and someone bets 40. The targeted rival has not contributed anything in this round yet: calling costs 40 and the pot after calling would be 180. Their usual max raise with Short Anchor would be up to 220, if they have enough chips.
TURN THE TABLES
Seal Shield
Destellos: 1
They throw a Short Anchor at you. You had a prepared answer.
When and how to use it
Nullifies a Short Anchor directed at you before it is applied. The rival spends their 2 Destellos and you spend 1 to defend. Bets already made remain in the pot.
When
Only in the Short Anchor response window, even if it is not your betting turn. Must be in the Carousel and you must be able to pay for it.
What you must know
Once per hand. Not used preventively and does not cancel other powers. You currently have 8 seconds to respond. If you let it pass or time runs out, the Short Anchor is applied and you do not spend the defense Destello.
Imagine this hand
You saved a Destello. A rival tries to limit your raise with Short Anchor: you respond with Seal Shield and keep the normal table limit.
Powers are exclusive to Naiko mode. Classic Hold'em and Omaha are played without powers.
Two cards. Five community cards. The thrill of deciding when to check, call or raise.
