About Upper Hand: Poker Meets Chess
Upper Hand is Pineapple Open Face Chinese Poker (OFCP), the strategic card game played by poker pros around the world. No bluffing. No hidden cards. Just smart decisions.
**HOW IT WORKS**
You're dealt cards one at a time. Place each card into one of three rows:
• Bottom row: 5 cards
• Middle row: 5 cards
• Top row: 3 cards
Each row is a poker hand. Bottom must be strongest, top must be weakest. If you break that order, you foul and lose everything.
Build a pair of Queens or better on top (without fouling) and you reach Fantasy Land—a bonus round where you're dealt all 14 cards at once.
**PLAY AGAINST AI**
• Works completely offline — offline card game on airplanes, subways, anywhere
• AI responds instantly, no waiting
• Two difficulty levels: Casual and Pro
• Practice and improve without needing an opponent
**PLAY AGAINST FRIENDS**
• Send a link to challenge anyone
• Take turns whenever you want—no scheduling
• Games save automatically
• Track your head-to-head record
**FEATURES**
• No account required to start playing
• Built-in tutorial teaches you in minutes
• Track your stats: wins, fouls, Fantasy Land rate, royalties per hand
• Beautiful design—feels like a gentleman's card room, not a casino
• No ads interrupting your games
**WHAT IS OPEN FACE CHINESE POKER?**
Open Face Chinese Poker (OFC or OFCP) is a strategic poker variant where you build three separate poker hands from cards dealt one at a time. Unlike Texas Hold'em, there's no betting rounds and no bluffing—just pure card placement strategy.
The "Pineapple" variant (which Fantasy Land uses) deals you 3 cards per turn after the first round. You place 2 and discard 1, adding an extra layer of decision-making.
OFCP has become popular among professional poker players as a skill game to play between tournaments. Now you can play it anywhere.
**PERFECT FOR**
• Poker players looking for a new challenge
• Puzzle and strategy game fans
• Anyone who wants a thinking game they can play in short bursts
• Friends who want an async game to play together
