I am a member of a regular Friday night poker game, and as with most friendly games, the dealer rotates from player to player for each hand, and the dealer gets to choose his game. My favorite? A game known as "Texas Push".

The concept of the game is To create a five card hand (one down card and four up cards, similar to five card stud) at which the highest hand and the lowest (worst) hand split the pot.

The game begins with each Player getting one down card. The first player then receives an up card. The player has the option of maintaining the card, or passing it to another player. If the player keeps the card, then the next player gets an up card and the exact same option. If the player passes the card, the next player then additionally has the exact same option and so on through the players. In each case, there's a cost to passing a card. After a player retains a card, another preceding players ' are "filled in", they receive a card that they don't have any choice except to keep. This process continues, with gambling on every completed round, until all of the players have 5 cards in total. Once all of the players have 5 cards (and the gambling is completed), the players are then requested to "declare". A coin in their hands means they're declaring for the "large" hand, and no coin usually means the "low" hand. The lowest and highest hand for every declaration split the entire pot.

The plan of this game Is to utilize the capability to pass cards to develop either a low or high hand. Poker players will be aware of what the top hands would be - normally three of a sort, a straight, or a flush will be a winning hand. For the low hand, the ultimate will be 6, 4, 3, 2, Ace where they're not in match (a flush or straight cannot be used as a low hand).

It is a fun, strategic game That is always a hit at our weekly poker game. See [http://pokerdee201.yolasite.com/ world star of poker].
