How Five-card stud is played here

The rules this table deals by. Everybody at the table sees the same lines before the first hand.

  • One card down and one up to start, then three more face up with a round of betting after each — five cards, and only one of them hidden.
  • Everybody antes. The lowest card showing opens with a bring-in of twice the ante, and there is no limit on the betting after that.
  • 10 players at most — any more and the deck runs short.
  • Only the hole card is hidden — almost the whole table is readable.

How it works

  1. Open a table. It gets a short code of its own.
  2. Read the code out, or send the link. Anyone you send it to sits down as a guest, without an account.
  3. Deal once everyone is seated — or give each empty chair a bot and start now.
