Seven Card Stud is a popular poker game and is played with up to 8 players.

The game:

Seven Card Stud uses what is known as a “dealer button” with the aim of showing the theoretical “dealer” for each hand. When a game is completed, the “dealer button” moves with the clock to the next active player (according to normal poker rules). The active player is now considered the “dealer” for the next hand. Before the game starts, you generate a new hand with new cards for the next game. One usually uses card games with 52 cards (without jokers) every round. Before the next round, the cards are shuffled electronically by the random number generator (RNG).

How does it work?

The system generates a random sequence of numbers that is used to correctly place each individual card. When the cards have been shuffled, that deck of cards is used for that game only. That means the cards are shuffled every round of the (RNG).

The first round:

A new table starts with the players placing their “ante” (a predetermined amount that is collected in the pot before the cards are dealt). How high the “ante” is at the various tables depends on a list that determines how high the maximum stake may be. For example, at a 1/2 table, it is 25 cents; at a 3/6 table, it is 50 cents.

In Seven-card stud poker, players are dealt 7 cards: 3 faces down and 4 face-up.

After the “ante” is set, each player receives 3 cards, two faces down and one face up. The open card is also called the “door card”; the player with the lowest value on the “door card” bets first. If two players have the same value, the color decides who goes first, in this order: clubs, diamonds, hearts, and spades, as the highest.

Each player may make one bet and three raises in each round. In order to continue in the game, you have to act according to the available options, unless you have been declared “All-In.”

The second round:

After the first “betting round,” a visible card is dealt with the players who did not fold after “Third-street.” Now it is “fourth street” and from now on the one with the highest hand always bets or Make the raise. If a pair is shown on the fourth street, the player can bet normal or double. If one player makes a normal/double raise, the other players have the right to see the normal bet raise, the double bet raise or fold; if it is a double bet, the raise must be at least as high as the bet.

The third round:

When the bet is made for the “fourth street,” which is the 2nd round, visible cards are dealt with again. This is called “fifth street” and leads. A doubling of the stakes in the coming rounds with it. The highest hand starts betting again.

The fourth round:

When the bets are made, the next card, fifth street, is dealt with. This is round 4.

The fifth round:

The final card is distributed. This map is called ´ “river” or “sixth street.” Last round.
