Overview

• Players are dealt an unrevealed hand and hands are exposed in rotation around the table.

How To Play

• Each player is dealt seven cards face down.

• Threes and Nines are wild cards.

• Fours allow players to add an additional card to their hand. (DO WE CHARGE FOR THE EXTRA CARD?)

• Starting with the player left of the dealer, players will turn over one card of their hand at a time until they have a hand that is higher than any other currently revealed hand.

• The first player must turn up cards until his hand is stronger than the bottom card of the deck.

• The player revealing cards continues until they believe that they have the best hand showing.  At that time, they stop and can choose to bet or check their option.

• Other players are NOT ALLOWED to call out hand values but may challenge a player that has incorrectly ceased or continued revealing cards.

• If a player has ceased and starting betting incorrectly OR continues to reveal cards after they have the best hand, then their hand is immediately folded and they pay a penalty (typically $3) to the pot.

• The game ends when the last card is revealed.

• Players may fold at any time.

Determining the Winner

• Each makes their best five-card poker hand using any of their 5 cards. Aces can play high or low.
