7 Card Stud Poker
PokerRoom 7 Card stud
7 Card Stud Poker RulesIn 7 Card Stud Poker, players are dealt 7 cards throughout the course of the hand, but only the best five-card hand possible for each player is used to determine the winner.
Before a game of 7 Card Stud starts, all players ante a nominal amount, for example $1 in a $10-$20 game. Each player is dealt two hidden hole cards and one exposed card. The player with the lowest exposed card is the "bring-in", and is forced to make a wager of either a half a small bet or a full small bet . Action continues clockwise around the table until betting is complete for the round.
In the unlikely event that all 8 players are still in the hand on the river, the total number of cards needed for all the players to receive their own card would not be available in a standard deck of cards. In this case the river card is dealt face up on the table and it will be used as a community card.
PokerRoom 7 Card stud Hi/Low
7 Card Stud Hi/Low Poker Rules7 Card Stud Hi/Low is played exactly like 7 card stud with one key difference- the lowest hand wins half the pot. The qualifier is that the low hand has to contain 5 cards that are 8 or less (straights and flushes don’t count). Thus, A-2-3-4-5 is the best possible low hand. In the even that there is a tie for the low or high hand, that part of the pot is split between the two winning hands. Also, if there is no qualifying low hand, the high hand wins the whole pot.
