Matchhousehouse 1 · round 1 of 10

An empty house. Sixteen chairs, and chair one goes to the first match at 0.005 ETH.

Every round the house posts the same stake. Miss it and you fold; your stake splits to the chairs still standing.

the tape

  1. --:--the tape prints every match, fold and split as it lands. First play: someone takes chair 1.
How the house runs, with a worked house
  1. Take a chair. In round 1, holders of 10,000 $MATCHHOUSE take a chair by matching the 0.005 ETH house stake. Sixteen chairs a house. Round 1 needs two chairs before its whistle counts.
  2. Match every round. Each round runs 8 minutes and the stake never moves: 0.005 ETH. Every chair still in matches once before the whistle.
  3. Miss it, you fold. At the whistle every chair that did not match is out. Everything it staked splits evenly to the chairs that matched, owed to them at once.
  4. The end. One chair left matching, round 10 reached, or nobody matching: every chair still in takes its own stakes back. No fee, no house cut.
