Poker Tips Video Source & Information:

Planning Poker is an agile technique that gets everyone on your team together to estimate the effort of a project or sprint. If you’re trying planning poker out for the first time check our other planning poker blog posts.

A Typical Planning Poker Game
– The goal is to get an accurate estimate of effort for the project
– Use a predefined sequence to help team members use relative measure for estimates
– Establish a solid baseline for effort points
– Flip all estimate cards at the same time
– Don’t take an average of the points, start a discussion until everyone can agree on a number
– Don’t give into peer pressure
– Make sure to have well-defined descriptions and acceptance criteria
– Include QA and all relevant parts of the team
– Track your progress
