Chinese Poker has only one relation to poker in that it uses the same hands.
Only not at all. Chinese poker is in fact nothing like Poker or Hold-em. Players (typically 3-5) are dealt hands from a 52 card deck (54 if you prefer jokers, but I'll leave them out) All the cards of the 52 card deck are dealt. The "2" card is considered the highest card. Suits do not factor into game play. One may start by playing a "single" any one card, a "double" a pair, a "triple" three of a kind, a "(suicide) bomber" a four of a kind, with any one card attached, a "straight"any 5 or more straight cards, or a "straight flush" any straight that's all of the same suit which is ranked higher than a straight.
One may only continue playing the type of card that one started playing this particular set with So if the first player plays a "single" The next player must play a "single" Unless they choose to use a bomb. A bomb can be used anytime.
The goal of the game is to get rid of all of one's cards.
