One would hope not :) Never know with money on the line though. I've had some friends who turned out to be pretty cutthroat when I got to the poker table with them.

This game would be so easy to program a solver for, that would let you play out the optimal game every time. You'd just have to input the board data at the beginning. I guess that's the problem with monetized strategy games without large luck factors, played from the privacy of your home, with simple input schemes.
