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 every hand, and the dealer gets to select his game. My favorite? A game called "Texas Push".

The Idea of the game is To create a five card hand (one down card and four up cards, similar to five card stud) at which the maximum 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 choice of maintaining the card, or passing it to another player. If the player keeps the card, then the next player receives an up card and the exact same option. If the player passes the card, the next player then also has the same choice and so on throughout the players. In every case, there's a cost to passing a card. Once a player retains a card, another preceding players ' are "filled in", they receive a card that they have no option but to keep. This process continues, with betting on each finished round, until all of the players have 5 cards in total. Once all 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 "high" hand, and no coin usually means the "low" hand. The highest and lowest hand for every declaration divide the total pot.

The strategy of the 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 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 utilized as a low hand).

It's a fun, strategic game That's always a hit at our weekly poker game. I.e. [http://pokerdee.joomla.com/ a fantastic read].
