I agree that this is really very far out on the chess variant spectrum. I don't think I'd say it's more a poker variant than a chess variant though. I tend to err on the side of inclusiveness; Greg?
Actually, I think it would be a better game with more poker elements; a matching pair/triple, or flush/straight (but only three cards) should confer some bonus in the chess phase?
And, if the game is to stay, the page needs a fair bit of formatting work.
