Triad is a type of bluffing card game similar to poker played in the Twelve Colonies. The hexagonal card faces are abstract symbols that are not yet explained in the Re-imagined Series. The back of the cards show a large star surrounded by a border with smaller stars.
"Full Colors" is the name of the highest winning hand in the game. Players declare their hands after betting is concluded, or "fold" (resign) depending on the cards they were dealt.
Possible Winning Hands
Notes
- This card game was apparently to be named identically to a similar card game found in the Original Series, called "Pyramid." However, a writing error by Ron D. Moore mistakeningly misnamed the basketball/rugby-style athletic sport in his show with the card game's name from the Original Series. Moore's athletic sport, to parallel the Original Series, should have been called Triad.
