I'm a member of a regular Friday night poker game, and as with most friendly games, the dealer rotates from player to player for every hand, and the dealer gets to choose his game. My favorite? A game called "Texas Push".

The concept of the game is To create a five card hands (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 gets an up card along with the exact same option. If the player passes the card, the next player then also has the same option and so on throughout the players. In every case, there's a cost to passing a card. After a player keeps a card, another previous players ' are "filled in", they get a card that they don't have any choice except to keep. This process continues, with gambling 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 "large" hand, and no coin means the "low" hand. The lowest and highest hand for every declaration divide the entire pot.

The strategy of the game Is to utilize the ability to pass cards to build either a low or high hand. Poker players will know what the high hands would 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 cannot be utilized as a low hand).

It's a fun, tactical game That is always a hit at our weekly poker game. More at [https://pokerdee101.tumblr.com/ linked website].
