In open Chinese poker "Pineapple", the "Fantasy" mode may be available. If a player has collected a combination of QQ (two Queens) or higher on the top line and at the same time their hand is not "dead", then the game goes into the "Fantasy" mode: the game is extended by one hand. In the "Fantasy" mode, the opponents are the first to lay out their cards openly, as in a regular game of "Pineapple". After the opponents have completed the layout of the cards, the player receives 14 cards face down at once. From 13 cards, the player makes combinations in all streets, and one card must be discarded. In one go, the player deals "Fantasy" like a regular Closed Face Chinese poker hand. Several players may have collected "Fantasy", or even all the players at the table. If all the players at the table except for one have collected "Fantasy" then all the players at the table begin to lay out their hands simultaneously. The player without "Fantasy" lays out the cards first, face down, but receives them according to the rules of "Pineapple", that is, first five cards, then three cards in each remaining street. Then players with "Fantasy" lay out 14 cards face down at once. In some cases, "Fantasy" can be repeated if the player fulfills certain conditions during the combination layout. There are two types of "Fantasy" in our room:
The 1st variety of "Fantasy" is unlimited. If a player has a combination of QQ (Pair of Queens) or higher on the top line and at the same time their hand is not "dead", the player receives 14 cards for the "Fantasy" layout. If a player is already in Fantasy mode, they can get endless Fantasy replays if they hit a Three of a Kind in the top box or Four of a Kind and higher in the bottom box. At the same time, their hand should not be "dead".
The 2nd variety of "Fantasy" is unlimited progressive. If a player has a QQ (Pair of Queens) combination on the top line and at the same time their hand is not "dead", the player receives 14 cards for the "Fantasy" layout. For a combination of KK (Pair of Kings), the player will receive 15 cards; for a combination of AA (Pair of Aces), the player will receive 16 cards; for a combination of 222 (a Set of two and higher), the player will receive 17 cards. If the player is already in Fantasy mode, they can get endless Fantasy replays if they hit a Three of a Kind in the top box or Four of a Kind and higher in the bottom box. At the same time, their hand should not be "dead", and when repeating "Fantasy", the player will receive 14 cards, regardless of which combination is collected in the top box.
