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

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

The game begins with each Player getting down one card. The first player then receives an up card. The player has the choice 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 exact same alternative. If the player passes the card, the next player then also has the same option and so on throughout the players. In each case, there's a charge to passing a card. Once a player keeps a card, another previous players are "filled in", they receive a card that they have no option but to keep. This procedure continues, with betting on every completed round, until all of the players have 5 cards in total. After all the players have 5 cards (along with the betting is finished), the players are then requested to "declare". A coin in their hands means they are announcing for the "high" hand, without a coin means that the "low" hand. The lowest and highest hand for each declaration split the entire pot.

The strategy of this game Is to use the ability to pass cards to develop either a high or low hand. Poker players will be aware of what the high hands will be - normally three of a kind, a straight, or a flush is going to be a winning hands. For the low hand, the ultimate will be 6, 4, 3, 2, Ace where they are not in suit (a flush or straight cannot be utilized as a low hand).

It is a fun, tactical game That's always a hit at our weekly poker game. Visit our website [http://pokerdee201.wordpress.com/ rules of poker].
