Cow Poke was invented by Clark Daniel Rodeffer (USA) in 2005 with (helpful, according to him) input by David Whitcher. It is a six-card stud poker / mancala crossover for 2 to 6 players where each player attempts to capture the cards he or she wants via a single-lap sowing. Betting rounds follow each capture, with a standard best five-card hand showdown at the end. The game has been only minimally tested; Rodeffer played several hands by himself in late February, and then a full game with David Whitcher on 11-March-2005. That seemed to go fairly well. It was David's idea to use face-down cards as place markers for the piles.
