I am a member of a regular Friday night poker game, and just like 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 called "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 option of keeping the card, or passing it to another player. If the player keeps the card, then the next player receives an up card and the same option. If the player passes the card, the next player then additionally has the same option and so on throughout the players. In every case, there's a cost to passing a card. Once a player retains a card, the other preceding players are "filled in", they receive a card that they don't have any option but to keep. This process continues, with betting on every finished round, until all of the players have 5 cards in total. After all the players have 5 cards (along with the gambling is finished), the players are then requested to "declare". A coin in their hand means they are announcing for the "large" hand, without a coin means that the "low" hand. The lowest and highest hand for every declaration split 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 be aware of what the high 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 where they're not in match (a flush or straight can't be used as a low hand).

It's a fun, strategic game That's always a hit at our weekly poker game. For further infos take a look at [http://pokerdee101.hatenablog.com/ just click the up coming article].
