The Game

Variation of Seven-Card Stud where players build their hand from a pool.

The Deal

As in 7-Card Stud, two down, one up, then bet.

The Play

After the first round of betting, the dealer places one card face up in the center of the table for each player in the game. Starting with the player with the lowest hand showing at the beginning of the round, each player may take one of these cards and add it face-up to their hand. Then the player who had the next highest hand, and so on. When all players have chosen their card, there is a round of betting, with the high hand starting the bet. This process is repeated for the remaining up cards.

Ending the Game

After the 6^th card, players get their seventh card face down and finish as normal 7-Card Stud.
