Poker Strategies
After receiving pocket cards, you are immediately faced with a choice: play your cards and either raise or call the blinds, or fold.

Each player is dealt a face-up card. If two or more players receive cards of the same denomination, the cards are dead and placed at the bottom of the deck by the dealer. The dealer continues dealing a card to each player until each has a card of a different denomination. When this occurs, the dealer reshuffles the remainder of the deck, and after the cut, continues dealing cards face up onto the center of the table until a card is dealt whose denomination matches a card in a player's hand. The player whose card it matches, says, "Give it to me." Each time a matching card is dealt, a round of betting takes place, and the player who has received that matched card starts the betting. As in Five Card Stud, a player at his turn of play may check, raise, call or fold. When a betting interval is ended, the deal continues. Play continues in this manner until some player has been dealt four of a kind, whereupon he takes half the pot. The other half goes to the low hand. Since not all players have the same number of cards, low hand is ranked as follows: low single card, low pair, and low three of a kind.
