Poker Favorites and Fibs
Poker Favorites and Fibs
One Friday evening, seven men met for poker in the back room of the Emerald City Bar and Grill. They broke up about midnight, and (because they left any odd change for the busboys) they each went home with a whole number of dollars. Though they played for small stakes, they did take the game seriously and each went home happy to remember one special hand he had held.
Two of the men were bachelors. The others had wives who didn't approve of gambling, and each had to invent a fib to tell his wife. (Two fibbed a mutual alibi -- they said they'd been cavorting together at a honkytonk.)
From the clues determine each man's name, how much money he went home with, his favorite hand, and, for each married man, what fib he told his wife.
Clue 1: The five married men included two who each went home with four times as much money as one of his six fellow players. The other three married men were Alan, the one whose favorite hand was a Full House, and the one whose favorite hand was his Bluff on a busted four-flush.
Clue 2: There were two men who each left with exactly three times as much money as some fellow player. One of these was the one (just mentioned in clue 1) who Bluffed on a busted four-flush. The other was the one who told his wife that his watch had stopped.
Clue 3: One man (not Fred) finished with exactly as much money as the other six put together. The second-place man had less than $12. The seven players all had different amounts, and each had at least $2.
Clue 4: One man's favorite hand was a Pair of Jacks, with which he called successfully against a bluffer. Another man told his wife ``I was tied-up at work.'' That ``tied-up'' man left with more money than Greg, and four times as much money as one player.
Clue 5: Greg finished with more money than the man whose favorite hand was Triplet Treys, who finished with more money than the one who told his wife he'd been abducted by a UFO.
Clue 6: Carl went home with less money than Dave. At least one of these two left with exactly one-quarter as much money as one of his six fellow players.
Clue 7: The man who bragged about his Royal Flush ended up among the lowest three for money.
Clue 8: Ezra finished with $1 more than the man (not Alan) whose big hand was when he drew to an Inside Straight.
Clue 9: The man (not Dave) whose favorite hand was Aces Over Eights, finished with more money than Bill (who isn't a bachelor).
