♪ How It Works

Your Hand & Your Score

Each round you're dealt two cards — one poker card and one music card. Your music card determines your guess type and points. Your poker card breaks ties.

Music Card

Genre · Artist · or Song — dealt randomly

🎵

Music Card Matches → Points

If the song playing matches your music card (genre, artist, or title), you earn 1, 3, or 5 points.

Poker Card → Tiebreaker

When players tie on music points — or nobody matches — the highest poker card wins the round.
