Seven Card Stud Poker Rules 7-Card Stud is the Pokergame that the most players know. The game is played at an eight-handed table and involves five rounds of betting.
Before a game starts, each player must post an 'ante', a mandatory amount that ensures there is some money in the pot. In stud poker games, there are no community cards. Instead, the dealer begins by dealing clockwise until each player has three cards. The first two cards are dealt face down ('hole' cards), the third face up.
The player with the lowest-ranking up card starts the game with a token bet called the 'bring-in'. (If two or more players have the same lowest card, the bring-in is determined by suit in alphabetical order: clubs, diamonds, hearts, and spades.) . 3rd StreetOnce the bring-in bet has been made, each player (starting with the player to the left of the bring-in) can fold, call, or raise to the betting limit. 4th StreetEveryone is dealt another up card. At this point, the player with the highest two up cards starts the betting. On this round of betting only, if a player gets an open pair, he or she can make a double bet. 5th StreetEveryone is dealt another up card. The player with the highest combination of up cards starts the betting. 6th StreetEveryone is dealt another up card.
