Nas Haya Gadol Vegas: New Spin on an Old Game

With Thanksgiving over, it's time to get to that Hanukkah shopping. While the followers of that OTHER major monotheistic religion are knocking themselves out running to malls and shopping online, we Jews can take a leisurely approach. Here's the gift I'm most likely to give that doesn't involve the Victoria's Secret catalog:

No Limit Texas Dreidel. The ModernTribe company is selling this game. The name is great, although the company's website is awful. I'm not sure how to play it. One of these days I'll read the FAQs. Here are ideas for organizing a tournament. And here's what the FAQs say in part:

Q: Do I have to know how to play poker to play No Limit Texas Dreidel? A: No. But you will learn much about poker when you play No Limit Texas Dreidel. You will learn about hands and poker betting rules, buttons, betting limits, and bluffing. Poker is a wonderful game that we believe everyone should learn: it has lessons to teach about math, probability, social behavior, and risk-taking. You can begin to learn these lessons too by playing No Limit Texas Dreidel. See, parents, it's educational!

Now, you too can say things like, "Hit me, Bubbeleh."
