They should have done this a long time ago.
No Ship, No Adventure, Just Poker. Honestly, I'd watch that.

Right? I feel like it would be a high quality, low budget, low stress series. No CGI, minimal costume and make up, the writers may just have to give them some in-character stuff to work into their banter. The cast’s age wouldn’t be a concern since they’d be comfortably seated the whole time.
It could work 😆

I was quoting TNG’s final words, but now you’ve got me actually wanting this!

Picard & Riker’s poker night.

I dunno about just poker, but I’d watch a show that took place entirely on the ship (no planets of the week or big budget special effects. I loved the bottle show episodes of TNG. They were so damn cozy!

Poker Night at the Inventory, but Trek?

It could be a little story anthology series, with each player taking terms sharing an embellished story to distract from the strength of their hands.
IcedRaktajino@startrek.website 3 weeks ago
Yes!
And Worf tells this highly embellished story of honor and victory, everyone reacts in awe, and he folds.

Beau. Maybe we could get a story about his targ when he has a good hand.
Dr. Crusher could get everyone a little hot under the collar with a ghost story

It’s not too difficult. Each player gets six cards, except for the player on the dealer’s right, who gets seven.
IcedRaktajino@startrek.website 3 weeks ago
Unless the player on the right is Worf who gets none because he’s just going to fold anyway.

Its a “rule” from Fizzbin lol

This game is exceedingly simple. With only fifty two cards, twenty one of which I will see, and four other players, there are a limited number of winning combinations.
