The Game

This is a combination of two 7-stud games, Shipwreck and High-Chicago; hence the name. The lowest down card is wild (and all like it) with no option on the last card, Additionally, the high natural spade down splits the pot.

The Deal

Deal as Shipwreck i.e., two down, four up, last down.

The Play

Play as 7-card stud. Bet follows each card after first up. Each player’s lowest down card is their wild.

Irregularities

It is possible for the player with the highest poker hand to also have the highest spade down. The player lucky enough to have this happen sweeps the pot.

A misdealt card should remain up. If it is one of the first two, the third card should be dealt down.
