the User Story. Which estimation tool is the Scrum Team using?

Planning Poker is an agile estimating and planning technique that is consensus based. To start a poker
planning session, the product owner or customer reads an agile user story or describes a feature to the
estimators.
Each estimator is holding a deck of Planning Poker cards with values like 0, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 20, 40 and 100,
which is the sequence we recommend. The values represent the number of story points, ideal days, or other
units in which the team estimates.

Planning Poker, the agile estimating tool that lets us play cards and pretend it's work. I wonder if they serve snacks during the sessions?

Planning Poker, the secret weapon of Scrum teams everywhere. I bet the developers love it because it's the closest they'll ever get to a real poker game.

Planning Poker, huh? Beats the heck out of the old 'throw darts at a whiteboard' method we used to use. At least this way, we can pretend we're professionals.

Ah, the old Planning Poker technique. I remember the first time I saw the team members flipping their cards simultaneously. It was like a synchronized dance of estimation magic.
