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 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 begins with each Player getting one down 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, the next player gets an up card along with the same option. If the player passes the card, then the next player then additionally has the same option and so forth through the players. In each case, there's a charge to passing a card. After a player retains a card, another previous players are "filled in", they receive a card that they don't have any choice except to keep. This process continues, with betting on every completed round, until each of the players have 5 cards in total. After all the players have 5 cards (and the gambling is finished), the players are then asked to "declare". A coin in their hand means they are declaring for the "large" hand, and no coin means the "low" hand. The lowest and highest hand for each declaration split the entire pot.

The plan of this game Is to use the capability 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 will be a winning hands. For the low hand, the ultimate will be 6, 4, 3, 2, Ace where they are not in match (a flush or straight can't be utilized as a low hand).

It is a fun, strategic game That's always a hit at our weekly poker game. More [http://pokerdee101.blogspot.com/ Suggested Reading].
