Nobody should miss out on a good game of cards for lack of opponents, ante, or those weird folding card tables. The Poker Face Paul series from Sega is a trio of card titles that teach, challenge, and let you vicariously enter the social whirl of the world's gambling capitals. With a suggested retail price of only $24.99 each, these three Game Gear carts give you high-stakes fun at a low, low price.

Poker Face Paul's Poker lets you test your mettle at Video Poker or take on a trio of animated opponents in 5 Card Stud. For the beginner, these games run you through the rules, give you the odds, and feature a Help section that gives you tips and even suggests when to bluff.

Video Poker lets you play against the dealer, betting on each new hand. For the calculating cardsharps out there (real or imagined), there's 5 Card Stud. The game lets you match your poker prowess against three on-screen adversaries in 10,25,50, or an unlimited number of hands.
