Step 3Learn five-card stud

The most common variation on the classic draw game, stud differs in the presentation of cards and the addition of betting rounds.

  • Rather than receiving five cards face down, players receive one card down, and one card face up to begin the game. All of the cards are left on the table.
  • Players then glance at their (face) down cards, and a round of betting ensues. Betting starts with the player having the highest card face up, or "showing."
  • After the first round of betting, each player receives another card face up. Another round of betting occurs, beginning with the player showing the highest hand.

The betting continues until each player that hasn't folded has five cards total (four showing and one down). The player with the highest hand wins and takes the pot.
