Online challenge

(same order of cards)

At the end of the match, you are awarded with +5 to your bankroll for each hand played (this is the BONUS).
There are 3 possible scenarios:
- both players have played the minimum number of hands
- the winner is the player with the higher bankroll
- none of the players has played the minimum number of hands
- the winner is the player with the higher bankroll
- only one player has not played the minimum number of hands
