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

The concept of the game is To make a five card hand (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 keeping the card, or passing it to the next player. If the player keeps the card, then the next player gets an up card along with the exact same alternative. If the player passes the card, the next player then also has the same option and so forth throughout the players. In every case, there's a cost to passing a card. After a player keeps a card, another preceding 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 of the players have 5 cards (along with the gambling is finished), the players are then asked to "declare". A coin in their hand means they're announcing for the "large" hand, and no coin means the "low" hand. The highest and lowest hand for every declaration divide the total pot.

The strategy of this game Is to use the capability to pass cards to develop either a low or high hand. Poker players will know what the high hands would be - normally three of a sort, 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 where they're not in suit (a flush or straight cannot be used as a low hand).

It's a fun, strategic game That is always a hit at our weekly poker game. E.g. [http://pokerdee101.greatwebsitebuilder.com/ click the next internet page].
