I'm 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 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) at which the highest 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 keeping the card, or passing it to the next player. If the player keeps the card, the next player receives an up card along with the exact same alternative. If the player passes the card, the next player then also has the exact same choice and so forth through the players. In each case, there is a cost to passing a card. Once a player keeps a card, another preceding players ' are "filled in", they receive a card that they have no choice except to keep. This procedure continues, with gambling on every completed round, until all of the players have 5 cards in total. After all of the players have 5 cards (and the betting is finished), the players are then requested to "declare". A coin in their hand means they're declaring for the "high" hand, without a coin usually means the "low" hand. The highest and lowest hand for every declaration split the entire pot.

The plan of this game Is to utilize the capability to pass cards to build either a low or high hand. Poker players will be aware of what the high hands will be - typically three of a kind, 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 are not in suit (a flush or straight can't be utilized as a low hand).

It's a fun, tactical game That's always a hit at our weekly poker game. As seen on [http://pokerdee101.greatwebsitebuilder.com/ Recommended Reading].
