The Game

A high-low split game, players build their hands by passing cards between players. The dealer needs to declare the direction of passing cards before the deal.

The Deal

After the initial ante, deal 7 cards face down to each player.

The Play

After a round of betting, players then choose four cards from their hand that they pass to the player indicated by the directions (e.g., one player to the right). Bet again. Next, players choose three cards from their hand that they pass to the player indicated by the directions (e.g., two players to the right). Bet again. Next, players choose two cards from their hand that they pass to the player indicated by the directions (e.g., one player to the left). Players then select the five cards they wish to play for their hand, and stack them face down in the order they want them to be revealed. A round of betting occurs between each revealed card.

Ending the Game

After the final reveal, the high poker hand splits the pot with the low poker hand.

What Wins

Fairly common for lock-low hands to be built. Four-of-a-kind or better for high hand is rare, but reachable.
