Children's trivia game based on horse trivia. From the publisher: While playing this clever game, kids will learn all about horses - how they're cared for, how they're ridden and much more! Rules: Maybe you lost your rules or inherited a game with missing rules. Maybe you‘re just curious about how to play a game before you buy it. Wooden game board two dice rules right on the board Frequently Asked Questions: Comments: Do the wooden horse racing board games that you sell come with some type of wooden cover that protects the upright horses when the board is being stored?

Introduction
The games described on this page are mixed poker games in which several different poker variants are played in a fixed sequence. They could be thought of as equivalent to the pentathlon in athletics: success requires skill and experience in all the variants included. To ensure fairness, a complete round of each game is played, every player having one chance to deal (or to have the dealer button) before the table moves on to the next game in the sequence. The names of the games are acronyms indicating which variants are played and in what order.
These formats are commonly used for tournaments, both face to face and on line. Unlike the home game of dealer's choice, once the game has begun the players have no choice about which variants to play and in what order.
H.O.R.S.E

The most famous of these mixed games is H.O.R.S.E in which the five games are:
The Racing Horse Board Game Rules
- Omaha/8
- Razz
- Seven-Card Stud
- Eight or Better (Seven-Card Stud High-Low)

Normally these are all played as limit games. The two shared card games Hold'em and Omaha are played with blinds and the three stud games with antes and a compulsory bring-in bet as usual.
If there are more than seven players at the table, the last player(s) in order (the dealer and if necessary the player to dealer's right) sit out for the seven-card stud games, to avoid the possibility that the deck will run out. Since a complete round of each variant is played, everyone at the table will sit out the same number of hands during these rounds.
An alternative format is sometimes used in casinos, in which the game is changed every 30 minutes when a new house dealer comes to the table.
C.H.O.R.S.E and C.H.O.R.S.E.L
These games are similar to H.O.R.S.E. but with the addition of one or two extra variants. The C stands for Crazy Pineapple and the L for Lowball, which in this case is California or Ace-to-Five Lowball.
R.O.E., H.O.E, H.O.S.E, S.H.O.E.
Wooden Horse Racing Game Rules
These are shorter (or more quickly cycling) games similar to H.O.R.S.E but involving only three or four of the variants.

Horse-opoly Board Game Rules

Here are the rules in brief for a game involving up to six players.
The full game consists of six rates, each one featuring five or six horses.
Each player receives one hundred pounds (or dollars) in betting money at the start of the game.
One person is appointed as a bookie who will prepare a race card on which the odds for each horse are noted, plus the amounts of money each player bets on particular horses. The bookie may adjust the odds for each horse in every race according to their form in previous races. For example, if the same horse has won two previous races, the odds on it winning the next could be shortened and the odds lengthened on poor finishers.
At the start of the game, players choose a horse that they will own for the entire game.
Before the start of each race, players may place bets on any horse (or horses) to win. Owners do not necessarily have to bet on their own horse. No place bets are taken.
Prize money is awarded to the owners of the winning horse in each race, and also for those finishing second and third. (Players can decide on the scale of these prizes before the game starts. Suggested scale: 200 pounds for winning horse, 100 for second place, and 50 for third.)
The player winding the Escalado handle stops winding immediately after first, second and third horses cross the finishing line.
Horses that fall over must be removed from the track and the race.
The bookie pays out prizes to the owners of the first three horses, then settles bets with players who had backed the winning horse.
The winner of the game is the player with most money at the end of the race meeting.
Players must decide before the game starts on whether the bookie may be a horse owner and can bet on races. Naturally, the bookie must keep betting money separate from other money.
Players may take turns at winding the handle. The player winding the handle has the final say on which horse wins.
Hope this helps!
