I am a member of a regular Friday night poker game, and just like the majority of friendly games, the dealer moves from participant to player for each hand, and the dealer gets to select his game. My favorite? A game called "Texas Push".

The Idea 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 starts 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 the next player. If the player keeps the card, the next player gets an up card and the same alternative. If the player passes the card, then the next player then also has the exact same choice and so on through the players. In every case, there's a cost to passing a card. Once a player keeps a card, the other previous players are "filled in", they receive a card that they don't have any option but to keep. This procedure continues, with gambling on each completed round, until all of the players have 5 cards in total. After all the players have 5 cards (along with the betting is completed), the players are then asked to "declare". A coin in their hand means they're declaring for the "large" hand, and no coin means that the "low" hand. The lowest and highest hand for each declaration divide the entire pot.

The plan of this game Is to use 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 - typically three of a kind, a straight, or a flush is going to be a winning hands. For the low hand, the ultimate would be 6, 4, 3, 2, Ace in which they're not in suit (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. Take a look at [http://pokerdee.joomla.com/ Suggested Browsing].
