The example of Stud Poker is the game with the same name - Stud Poker. If you play 5 card Stud you will receive one card face down and one face up, 7 card Stud – 2 cards face down and one face up. The gambler to the dealer’s left starts. There is a betting round after the deal and then each player is dealt another card. One more betting round and the players are dealt all cards face up, except the last one. The showdown occurs after the last card is dealt and the player with the highest hand is the winner.
