7 CARD STUD.....
There are five wagering rounds in a complete game of Seven Card Stud, not including the ante. The dealer deals two clockwise rounds giving each player a single card down during each round (known as hole cards) and one round with the card face up (known as the door card). Wagering begins with the first player with the highest ranking door card. This player may Check (no wager) or Bet. If this player Checks each player clockwise has the same opportunity to Check or Bet. If any player Bets, each player clockwise may either Fold (remove themselves from the hand), Call (equal the wager that has been placed), or Raise (increase the original wager). If any one Raises a Bet, each person thereafter will have the same opportunity to Fold, Call, or Raise. The number of Raises are predetermined at the beginning of the Game. After the initial round of wagering, the dealer deals another round of cards face up. The person with the highest hand showing face up is first to Check or Bet. Thereafter, the second round of wagering is as per the first round. The third and fourth rounds are as per the second round. After the fourth round of wagering, the dealer deals another round of cards face down. Wagering is as per the second, third, and fourth rounds. After the fifth round of wagering, its time for the Showdown. This refers to the action of deciding the winner. Five cards of the total seven cards are to be used for deciding the winning hand. If any time during play no one calls a Bet, the Bettor wins and does not have to show his hand.
Note: Five Card Stud is the same as Seven Card Stud with the exception that only five cards are dealt to each player with the first and fifth cards dealt face down and the second, third, and fourth cards are dealt face up.
