Hooper and Smiley's 3-13 results (2008 version)

The following documents in-detail the statistics surrounding an event in the Dozerfleet Productions short film 3-13, based on the 2008 version's results.

Hooper and Smiley play until the 9's round before moving in to bust Gambino. Their good records keeping allows them to resume their game later. The following is a round-by-round sequence of how Hooper and Smiley went out of the game. They play a variation where the jokers are used and are always wild cards that count for nothing; and can be used to negate other cards to make sets.

Key
"-S" = Smiley drew from the card pile first, Hooper dealt. "-H" = Hooper drew from the card pile first, Smiley dealt. "RBR" = Results by Round, how each performed in the given round of 3's to King's. "->" = Earned this many points, for a net total of this number of points. "F-(suit): values" = A flush, consisting of these card values. If a card is used to substitute the value of another card, it should be indicated with a sigma sign for substitution clarification. "+(value)(suit)" = Points to be added to score for that round. Will hurt player's chance of winning, unless inside a bracket that indicates a flush or run. "-(value)(suit)" = The last card the player discarded, will not be included in round score. "&Delta;-(value)" = A three's run, three of that kind. Wildcard substitutions should be indicated with the addition of "w/(wildcard's name)." "Jok" = Joker, an eternal wildcard with no weight of its own. "(&psi;)" = Condition only true because of a card played on hand by another player. Used often to indicate that a three's run is a four's run only because of an additional card dumped on the hand by another player. May also indicate that a four's run has become a five's run for the same reason. In more advanced settings involving more than two players and more than one deck, this may indicate up to an eight's run from what would have been a seven's run, all for reasons of another player's dumping. "&prod;" = A four's run, four-of-a-kind. Similar to a three's run (above.) "&piv;" = A five's run, five-of-a-kind. Similar to a three's run (above.) "w/(value 1) & (value 2)" = two or more wildcards contributing to the run or flush. "&sigma;(value)" = wildcard is functioning in the place of the given value.

Below is an explanation:
