I'm a member of a regular Friday night poker game, and just like most friendly games, the dealer rotates from player to player for every hand, and the dealer gets to select his game. My favorite? A game known as "Texas Push".

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

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

The plan of this game Is to utilize the ability to pass cards to build either a high or low hand. Poker players will be aware of what the top hands would be - normally three of a sort, a straight, or a flush is going to be a winning hand. For the low hand, the ultimate would be 6, 4, 3, 2, Ace in which they are not in match (a flush or straight can't be used as a low hand).

It's a fun, tactical game That's always a hit at our weekly poker game. More Info: [http://pokerdee801.over-blog.com Continue].
