Poker
Rules - 7 Card Stud Rules
In
7 Card Stud two down cards and one face up card dealt
to each player. Once each player has their cards there
is an initial round of betting. Once the first round
of betting is concluded each player is dealt one card
face up and another round of betting occurs. This is
repeated two more times for a total of four face up
cards each with a round of betting. A final card is
dealt face down followed by the last round of betting.
During fixed limit games the first two rounds of
betting are for the lower limit amount. All additional
betting rounds are for the higher limit amount.
The
player who assembles the best 5 card hand wins the
pot. In the event two or more players assemble the
same valued hand the pot is divided equally amongst
the winners.

General
7 Card Stud Rules
1.
The first betting round is initiated by the player
with the lowest ranking up card.
Since this is a forced bet, the player must
open for the minimum and cannot fold at this time.
2.
If your first or second hole card is accidentally
flipped up by the dealer it will become your face up
card and the third card will be dealt face down to
replace it.
3.
If you are not present to act when it is your forced
bet or ante, your hand will be taken and your bet or
ante will be forfeited.
4.
In the instance that more than 7 cards are dealt to a
player, that hand is deemed dead.
5.
The dealer must announce the low card before the first
round of betting.
